Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Tomato Protein Pasta Sauce ahead of time, following the provided directions.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, enough to cook the whole box of pasta. Once boiling, add the pasta and cook for 8–10 minutes, or until al dente.
While waiting for the water to boil, begin browning the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. Season with your preferred spices.
Once the beef is mostly browned, add the peas and continue cooking until the beef is fully cooked and the peas are heated through.
When the pasta is done, drain it and add it to the skillet with the beef and peas. Pour in the Tomato Protein Pasta Sauce and stir until everything is evenly mixed and heated through.
Divide the pasta into 4 equal portions, about 380 grams each. Enjoy warm, or store in airtight containers in the refrigerator for 3–4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
