How Baba makes it
Directions
- 1
Heat the oven to 425°F. Line a small sheet pan with parchment or lightly coat it with cooking spray.
- 2
Spread the zucchini on the pan. Lightly mist with cooking spray and season with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Roast for 15–20 minutes, turning once, until tender and browned at the edges.
- 3
While the zucchini roasts, cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain and weigh out 100 g cooked pasta for this serving.
- 4
Lightly coat a skillet with cooking spray. Add the ground sirloin and cook over medium heat, breaking it into small pieces, until it reaches 160°F and is no longer pink.
- 5
Stir in the tomato sauce and simmer for 3–5 minutes, until hot. Spoon the meat sauce over the pasta and serve with the roasted zucchini.
Roast extra zucchini while the oven is hot. It reheats easily and makes tomorrow’s lunch a little easier.
