Combine two family favourites—pasta night and taco night—into one pan.

Ingredients

Calorie controlled cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Extra lean beef mince (5% fat), raw

350 g

Onion

1 medium, finely diced

Garlic

3 clove(s), crushed

Ground Cumin

1 teaspoon(s), level

Tinned Tomatoes

1 can(s), large

Yellow lentil pasta

240 g

Half fat Cheddar cheese

80 g, grated

Fresh Salsa (no oil)

4 tablespoon(s)

Sliced green jalapeños in brine

2 tablespoon(s), drained, optional

Instructions

  1. Coat a large nonstick frying pan with cooking spray and heat over medium-high. Cook the beef, onion, garlic and cumin for 5 minutes, stirring frequently to crumble the meat, until the beef is browned. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Add the tomatoes and 450ml water and bring to a boil. Break the pasta in half and add to the pan. Stir gently to combine. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 10-12 minutes, until the pasta is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
  3. Remove the pan from the heat. Top the pasta with the grated cheese, salsa, and jalapeños (if using).
