Ingredients
- – 8 ounces (227 g) uncooked pasta, penne
- – 4 cups (600 g) broccoli florets
- – 2 cups (280 g) cooked beef, shredded or chopped
- – 1 (15 ounce (425 g)) jar Alfredo sauce
- – 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) Italian seasoning
- – 1/2 cup (50 g) shredded Parmesan-style cheese
- – 2 cups (200 g) dairy-free mozzarella, shredded
- – Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Set your oven to 375°F, placing the rack in the upper third section.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, then cook the pasta for one minute less than the instructions suggest. Add broccoli into the pot two minutes before the pasta finishes cooking. Drain and move them to a 9×13 baking dish.
- Combine the beef, Alfredo sauce, Parmesan-style cheese, and Italian seasoning with the pasta and broccoli in the dish, mixing thoroughly.
- Spread the mixture evenly, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella on top.
- Put it in the oven, uncovered, and bake for 15-20 minutes until it becomes hot and bubbly. If desired, broil briefly to brown the cheese, keeping a close eye to prevent burning. Add salt and pepper to your liking, then serve right away.
Notes
- Try using whole grain pasta for added fiber and nutrients.
- Add minced garlic for a stronger flavor.
- Replace beef with plant-based protein for a vegetarian-friendly option.
