Creamy Beef Pasta



Creamy Beef Pasta

I was boiling the pasta and browning the beef and realized I didn't have any spaghetti sauce.  So we went with this instead!

Brown 1 lb ground beef
Add crushed garlic, dried parsley, dried basil, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, salt and pepper to taste

Pour in coconut milk (about 1 1/2 cups), then add 1 Tbsp of cornstarch whisked in cold water.  Whisk as you add it to avoid lumps.  Will thicken in about 1 minute.

Boil Pasta (I like Ancient Harvest Quinoa Pasta in elbow shape), drain and add to the mix.

To be honest the kids weren't fond of it, but my husband and I loved it!  Next time I'll leave a bit of the beef and noodles with less seasoning for them...but it is definitely a keeper.
