Using lean beef helps this classic pasta casserole cling with flavour and is surprisingly lower in calories than the norm.
500g beef mince
2 large carrots, grated
400g condensed tomato soup
475ml water
250g penne pasta
2 tbsp fresh basil
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
100g mozzarella cheese, grated
50g parmesan cheese, grated
Use a large pan to brown the beef and grated carrot over medium heat.
Drain off the fat.
Stir in tomato soup, the water, uncooked penne, onion powder, and garlic powder and bring everything to the boil
Reduce the heat and cook, covered for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally until the penne is tender.
Stir in fresh basil and mozzarella cheese and serve with the parmesan cheese for everyone to sprinkle over individually if they like.
