Clean Spicy Spaghetti

If you're like me you LOVE comfort food! I love making up clean recipes that still hit the spot. My hubby rated this one in TOP 5 recipes...woohoo!!

I had been dying to buy a Veggetti (http://www.amazon.com/Veggetti-Spiral-Vegetable-Slicer-Veggie/dp/B00IIVRB3W) months and about a month or 2 ago, finally bought one. Then...I didn't use it haha. Well last night was our first time using the Veggetti! I used Zucchini to make some spaghetti. From my research, they said that you need 1 zucchini per person and I would say that that is about right! We also sauteed them in coconut oil in a non stick skillet until they were cooked. We topped our veggetti noodles with a yummy meat sauce!

Ingredients:

  • 1lb grass fed ground beef
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 finely minced garlic clove
  • 2 tbsp almond flour
  • 1 tbsp curry powder
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • sea salt to taste
  • jar of organic spaghetti sauce
  • coconut oil


 Directions:

  • Heat coconut oil in a non stick skillet
  • Mix all ingredients except spaghetti sauce and coconut oil in a large bowl
  • Heat spaghetti sauce in a saucepan on low heat to warm up
  • Take meat mixture and cook in skillet 
  • Once cooked, add spaghetti sauce to meat mixture. Mix well and heat a little longer 5-15 minutes is fine
  • Top Zucchini/Veggetti noodles with meat mixture and a sprinkle of part skim mozzerella if desired
Enjoy!

It's been a while...

Hello there! It's been a while huh? Um I think about 3 years!! A lot has happened in those 3 years...3 places of work, pregnancy, and mom life! So what's new?? I worked at a small outpatient clinic...didn't like it! Went to an awesome hospital in the city...LOVED it!! Then after having my son took a position at a local hospital...only 8 minutes from home vs the hospital in the city which was 55 minutes on a good traffic day! I found out I was prego a few days before Christmas 2016...yes it was planned. For YEARS, we said NO kids ever! My father died in 2015 and my whole thought process on kiddos changed! Landon David arrived 8/14/17 via planned c section...he was breech! I stressed myself out incredibly too much about sleep, breastfeeding, being perfect, etc AND I suffered from Postpartum Depression and Anxiety! One thing I have learned about Motherhood is that you can plan, but you have to expect the unexpected!! Once I accepted this, my anxiety died down A LOT...
