Cappello's Fettuccini with Beef & Tomato

So, I received my Cappello's Sampler last week on Thursday. I decided to make a dish using the fettuccini noodles. Here's the ingredients: almond flour, cage-free eggs, tapioca flour, potato starch, xanthan gum, sea salt

 

This gluten free and grain free pasta was absolutely delicious. It says to cook for 45 seconds once the water is at its boiling point and to rinse off with cool water. Me being me, I didn't do that. And the salt used in the water left a yummy flavor to the noodles themselves.

 

I just randomly brought these ingredients together. Trial and error! The package serves for 2 people, but I had about 1/4 of it for lunch and it was very filling.

 

Ingredients:

• 1 package of Cappello's Fettuccini Pasta
• 1 lb of grass fed ground beef
• 1 x 8 oz of tomato sauce
• 1 x 14 oz can of diced tomatoes with basil, oregano (I think that's the size)
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 white onion, diced
• 2 cloves of garlic, diced
• Italian seasoning (usual dried spices), salt and pepper

Preparation:

• Mix in 2 eggs in the meat
• Apply italian seasoning, salt and pepper to taste
• In a pan, add about 3-5 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil (or fat of your choice)
• Pan fry the garlic and onion, until onions are transluscent
• Pan fry the ground beef and mix in with the garlic and onion (I like my ground beef as chunks)
• Have a pot boiling for the noodles, take your time... add enough water so the pasta can be submerged. Add salt.
• Once the ground beef has browned and theres very little pink left, pour in the tomato sauce and the diced tomatoes and stir, and let simmer
• Once the water is at its peak, make sure the fettuccini noodles are separated and submerge for 45 seconds as directed
• Drain in colander, and rinse (I didn't do this, lol)
• Using the same pot to boil the noodles, drain of excess water, replace the noodles and pour in the meat/tomato mix and stir to evenly distribute
• Let cool for 2 minutes and serve

BOOM.

 

My eyebrows look ridiculously high, lol. But here's the noodles!
