Looking for more ways to please my husband Mike's "simple man" palate, I once again turned to Progresso's new Recipe Starters. I had some of the creamy three cheese cooking sauce remaining from the swag I received at BlogHer Food '12, and it was easy to find a simple recipe on Progresso's website. Their recipe uses rigatoni, but I went with farfalle instead. It's such a pretty pasta!
He and I both enjoyed it. It made more than enough for the two of us, and the leftovers were just as good the next day.
Ingredients:
- 3 cups uncooked farfalle pasta
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1/2 cup sliced green onions
- 1 18-ounce can Progresso Recipe Starters creamy three cheese cooking sauce
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Cook and drain pasta as directed on package; set aside.
- Meanwhile, in large skillet, cook beef and green onions over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is brown; drain.
- Stir in pasta, cooking sauce and barbecue sauce.
- Heat to boiling.
- Reduce heat; simmer 5 minutes to blend flavors, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat; sprinkle with cheese.
- Cover; let stand 3 to 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
