Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • ½ cup of onion (diced)
  • 1.5 lbs. ground beef
  • 4 cups zucchini (spiralized)
  • 2 14.5 oz cans of diced tomatoes
  • 1 15 oz can of pure pumpkin
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 tablespoon salt (I used sea salt)
  • 1 tablespoon ground pepper
  • Optional garnishes: Basil and parmesan
Instructions
  1. In a large saute pan, add a tablespoon of olive oil and bring to medium heat.
  2. Add the diced onion and saute for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add the ground beef and saute for 6-7 minutes. The meat will continue to be cooked in the sauce so we just want to start the browning process in this stage.
  4. Add the diced tomatoes, pumpkin, cloves, salt, and pepper and stir together.
  5. Add the zucchini noodles and toss to combine.
  6. Bring the mixture to a boil. Then reduce heat, cover, and let simmer for 15-20 minutes.
  7. Do a final test for salt/pepper to taste.
  8. Serve hot and top optionally top with basil and parmesan. Enjoy!
