Categories     Pasta

Yield 8 people

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound extra-lean ground beef
1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic
Vegetable cooking spray
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce
1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces uncooked whole wheat linguine*
1 (16-ounce) container nonfat sour cream
1 (8-ounce) package fat-free cream cheese, softened
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded low-fat mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Cook beef and garlic in a Dutch oven coated with cooking spray, stirring until beef crumbles and is no longer pink. Drain beef mixture; pat dry with paper towels. Stir in tomatoes and next 4 ingredients; simmer 30 minutes. Set meat sauce aside. Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and oil; drain. Place pasta in a 13- x 9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Stir together sour cream, cream cheese, and green onions. Spread over linguine. Top with meat sauce. Bake at 350° for 20 to 25 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, and bake 5 more minutes or until cheese melts. Let stand 5 minutes. * Regular linguine may be substituted. ** To lower sodium, omit the salt and use reduced-sodium canned tomato porducts.

I'm not a fan of mushrooms, so I omitted them from the recipe. The sauce was still delicious, but I think it would have been even better with them.

The sauce was a bit too thick for my taste, so I added a little bit of water to thin it out. It turned out perfect!

I'm always looking for ways to sneak more vegetables into my meals, so I added some chopped carrots and celery to the sauce. It added a nice crunch and sweetness.

I'm a huge fan of spicy food, so I added a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce. It gave it a nice kick without overpowering the other flavors.

I was skeptical about using ground turkey in a meat sauce, but I was pleasantly surprised! It turned out moist and flavorful, and it paired perfectly with the tangy tomato sauce.

The meat sauce was incredibly flavorful, but the linguine was a bit overcooked for my liking. Next time, I'll be sure to keep a closer eye on it.

The sauce was a bit too acidic for my taste, but that's easily remedied with a little bit of sugar or honey. Other than that, this recipe is a winner!
