Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 2 cups pasta (e.g., penne or rotini)

  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  6. Add the drained pasta to the skillet with the beef and sauce. Toss to coat evenly.
  7. Grate the Parmesan cheese into the mixture and stir until melted and creamy.
  8. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more beef broth or cream to reach your desired consistency.
  9. Serve the pasta hot, garnished with fresh parsley for an added burst of flavor.
  10. Enjoy your delicious Stovetop Creamy Ground Beef Pasta.
