Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2.5 cups butternut cheese sauce
- 1 pound of ground beef
- 1 cup cauliflower rice
- 1 cup chopped yellow onions
- 1 cup chopped white mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons nightshade free taco seasoning
- 2 cups gluten free uncooked pasta of choice*
Instructions
- Make butternut cheese sauce if not already made.
- Add ground beef, cauliflower rice, onions and mushrooms to a large skillet and sauté until meat is cooked all the way through. You may need a little avocado or olive oil if your meat is very lean. **
- While meat is cooking, prepare pasta according to directions and slightly al dente.
- Mix taco seasoning with 1/2 cup water.
- Drain meat/veggie mixture and pasta and add pasta, taco seasoning mix and cheese sauce to meat/veggie mixture.
- Stir until well combined and season with salt and pepper as needed.
Notes
*These Tinkyada rice macaroni noodles work great and don’t get soggy.
**I use a grass fed, organic ground beef and find if I sauté with the veggies, the grease from the meat is enough to coat the pan. But you may need a little oil (olive or avocado oil recommended) if your meat is very lean.
