Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
  • 1 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 8 ounces wagon wheel pasta, cooked and drained
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large green pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 jar (26 ounces) meatless spaghetti sauce
  • 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions

  1. In a large nonstick skillet, cook the beef, mushrooms and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. In a shallow 3-qt. baking dish coated with cooking spray, toss pasta, Parmesan cheese, green pepper, spaghetti sauce and beef mixture.
