Baby Kate's Beefaroni (Oamc) Toddler-Style
- Reviews 2
Ready In: 40 mins
Serves: 8
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (not extra virgin, I use light tasting)
- 1 lb extra lean ground beef (I used 94% lean)
- 1⁄2 small onion, very very finely diced
- 1 1⁄2 cups coarsely grated carrots
- 1 medium fresh tomato, peeled, seeded and chopped
- 1 cup filtered water
- 6 slices of pasteurized process American cheese (not processed cheese "food")
- 8 ounces uncooked pasta (choose something that chubby fingers can easily pick up, I used Barilla brand Pipette)
Directions
- Heat oil in skillet.
- Add beef, carrots, tomatoes and onions. Cook until beef is completely cooked and crumbly; carrots will be soft, onions and tomatoes will be virtually non-existent.
- During this cooking stage, add the water to make a "sauce".
- Set aside when done.
- While cooking meat mixture, cook pasta according to package directions.
- Drain pasta and combine with meat mixture.
- Tear up the 6 slices of cheese and stir into beef/pasta mixture until a creamy sauce forms.
- It's done!
- Freeze in small containers.
- To reheat, defrost in refrigerator and heat in microwave or sauce pan. You can add a little water (2 tsp or so) to keep moist while reheating.
