MEAT SAUCE LOW-CARB BROCCOLI PARMESAN CUPS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• In a food processor add the broccoli, 1 cup (110g) of Parmesan, 1 clove of garlic, 1 egg, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Pulse until mixture forms a dough like texture, about 2 minutes.
• Place 1 tablespoon of the broccoli mixture and press into a well greased muffin tin. Form the mixture into a cup, making the bottom and sides ½-inches (1 cm) thick.
• Bake for about 30 minutes until the edges are golden and crispy and the bottom is firm.
• Cool the broccoli cups. Once cooled, remove from the muffin tin.
• Heat the oven to broil.
• Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened.
• Add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, and stir until browned.
• Add the sausage, breaking it apart with a spoon, and stir until browned.
• Mix in 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan, salt, pepper, 3 tablespoons of the basil, and 2 tablespoons of the parsley, and stir to combine.
• Add the tomato sauce and the tomato paste. Continue stirring until the meat sauce is bubbling. Reduce heat to low, and cover the pot, simmering for 45 minutes.
• Place about a ¼ cup (65 g) of the ragu in the broccoli Parmesan cups. Top with mozzarella cheese.
• Broil for 2 minutes until cheese is melted.
• Top with the rest of the basil.
• Broccoli Parmesan Cups can be stored up to 3 days and can be reheated in the oven.
• Enjoy!
