This meal was sooooo easy. As you can probably tell, Clay and I love veggies. Zucchini is one of our faves.
There are 5 ingredients to this meal:
- Zucchini, 1 feeds one person
- Ground Beef, 90-95% lean (we actually used 85% lean because that's all I could find so we weren't as healthy as we could have been)
- Olive Oil, a tablespoon-ish or two or three
- Pasta Sauce (the amount depends on how much meat you have and your personal preference)
- Salt/Pepper
- Cut up the zucchini and put slices on baking sheet. Pour olive oil over slices and a pinch of salt/pepper. Bake for 20ish minutes at 375 degrees. I like mine to be a little burnt because it makes it crunchier so just check it every now and then until you are satisfied. I would probably flip the zucchini over once because sometimes the bottom can get more burnt than the top. [Handy tip: put foil over the baking sheet before you lay the slices on them. It will help the olive oil not seep into the sheet as much and will be a breeze to clean up!]
- Heat the beef in a skillet over the stove until the meat turns brown. (I know. Duh. But some of the people reading this might not know and I can't be held responsible for their food borne illness.)
- Once the meat has been cooked for about 30 minutes, drain all the grease into a container you can discard later. Remember you don't ever want to put grease down the disposal.
- Add the pasta sauce to the ground beef and let simmer for a few minutes until ready to serve.
- Place the zucchini slices on a plate and top with the meat/sauce! Enjoy!
