One Pot Cheesy Mushroom Spinach Beef Pasta
6 servings
portions15 minutes
temps actif45 minutes
temps totalIngrédients
1 tablespoon butter (or sub olive oil)
8 ounces baby bella mushrooms, sliced
½ yellow onion, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound lean ground beef (90% is good)
1 (5 oz) bag spinach, chopped (or leave spinach leaves as is!)
1 cup milk of choice (we do unsweetened almond milk)
3 ½ cups low sodium beef or chicken broth
1 pound uncooked wide egg noodles
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup parmesan cheese
Freshly ground salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
Cook your mushrooms: place a large pot over medium-high heat and add in 1 tablespoon butter. Once butter melts, add in the mushrooms, onions, garlic and salt and pepper. Stir occasionally until mushrooms and onions are cooked down, mushrooms release their liquid and start to become golden brown, about 8 minutes. Transfer veggies to a bowl.
In the same pot, add in your ground beef then season with salt and pepper, and break up the meat, cooking until no longer pink, about 5-8 minutes. Add mushroom & onion mixture back to the pot then stir in the spinach. Once spinach wilts down, pour in milk and chicken broth and stir to combine.
Next, stir in the egg noodles and bring mixture to a slight boil (you don't want a roaring boil); you’ll cook until the pasta is nice and tender, stirring often so noodles do not stick to the bottom of the pan, about 10-12 minutes total (depending on your pasta shape) and most of the liquid (but not all!) is absorbed. You’ll want a little bit of liquid left to make the sauce nice and creamy. If, towards the end of cooking, you're finding that there isn't any liquid left, feel free to add an extra ½ cup of broth.
Remove from heat and stir in the mozzarella and parmesan cheese and add additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy! Serves 4.
