Ingredients

• 12 ounces Gluten-free spaghetti
• 1 pound Ground beef
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Onion
• 3 Garlic cloves
• 28 ounces Crushed tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (optional, for serving)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the gluten-free spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside. Toss with a little olive oil to prevent sticking, if needed.

Step 2

While the pasta cooks, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease and set the cooked beef aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.

Step 5

Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 6

Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet and stir it into the sauce. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to combine.

Step 7

Taste the sauce and adjust seasonings if needed. If the sauce is too thick, you can add a splash of water or gluten-free vegetable stock to thin it out.

Step 8

Serve the gluten-free spaghetti topped with the ground beef sauce. Optionally, garnish with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley.

Step 9

Enjoy your hearty and comforting gluten-free spaghetti with ground beef!
