Romel actually MADE DINNER tonight! Order your microwave pressure cooker on my site: mariaolipas.com
1 lb frozen ground beef (ours was already browned and drained of grease)
1 - 26 oz can of pasta sauce
3 cups bowtie pasta
3 fresh oregano leaves or 1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 cups frozen broccoli
Add 1 cup of water if you want a thinner pasta dish.
Place all ingredients in the microwave pressure cooker. Cover and cook for 15 minutes if using raw thawed out ground beef. Cook for 20 if using frozen beef. Romel didn't put additional water so it got thicker as it sat but it was DELISH! The broccoli being cooked under pressure for that long disintegrates it. For parents, this is a great way to HIDE veggies in a dish.
If you like your broccoli crunchy, set it aside and cook all other ingredients. Allow time to depressurize and place frozen broccoli on top. Cover and cook for 5 minutes.
**Cook times will vary based on microwave wattage. I use a 1,000 watt microwave.**
