This is a true one-pot meal: meat, pasta, and veggies all cook together and, thanks to the super-skinny angel hair spaghetti, they cook together quickly. Plus, since you boil the pasta right in the sauce, the flavor soaks into every strand.
Ingredients:
1/2 lb ground beef
1 (26 ounce) jar pasta sauce
1 teaspoon kosher salt (or half as much table salt)
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups water
1/2 lb angel hair pasta, broken into thirds
2 cups baby spinach or 2 cups chopped kale
freshly grated parmesan cheese
Directions:
1. In a large, heavy pot over medium heat, saute the beef until it is browning in places and no longer pink —3 or 4 minutes.
2. Add the sauce and cook, stirring, for a minute or two, then stir in the salt, sugar, olive oil, water, pasta, and greens.
3. Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a boil, then turn the heat down to low, cover the pot, and simmer gently — stirring frequently so that the bottom doesn't scorch —for 10 or so minutes, until the pasta is tender.
4. Serve with grated parmesan cheese.
