Ingredients
Method
- Heat the oven to 375°F. Cook spaghetti in well-salted water until just shy of al dente. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water.
- Warm Ellbee's Chef's Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a wide skillet. Brown the beef, then add mushrooms and onion. When the vegetables are deeply savory, stir in Ellbee's Tuscan Gourmet Garlic for one minute.
- Add crushed tomatoes, Ellbee's Tomato Basil Balsamic Vinegar and a splash of pasta water. Simmer for 10 minutes, then toss with the spaghetti, ricotta, 1 cup mozzarella and 1/4 cup Parmesan.
- Transfer to a lightly oiled baking dish. Top with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan, then bake until bubbling and bronzed, 20 to 25 minutes. Rest for 10 minutes and finish with basil.
Notes
Time: 55 min
Kitchen tip: Use a wide, shallow baking dish so more cheese gets to brown and every serving gets a little crispy edge.
