2 cups marinara sauce
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper

1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon italian seasoning
1/2 cup 2% milk
1/4 cup butter, melted
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the marinara sauce, salt and pepper; cook and stir for 8-10 minutes or until thickened. Spoon into four 8-oz. ramekins or custard cups; set aside.
