Notes
For a lighter option, substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken. You can use penne or fusilli instead of bowtie pasta. If you want an extra kick, add red pepper flakes when mixing. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days and reheat gently, adding a splash of cream or milk if the sauce thickens. Adding a splash of white wine to the skillet after browning the beef enhances the flavor beautifully.
