"Spaghetti" With Meat Sauce

You can use a spiralizer or buy the zucchini already spiralized.

Ingredients:

• 4 zucchini, spiralized
• 1 lb ground beef
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 small onion, minced
• 2 cups canned diced tomatoes, drained (I use Organic Pomi tomatoes)
• 1 1/2 cup parmesan cheese (or your choice, I used cheddar because I had it on hand), shredded
• 1 tsp dried Italian Seasoning
• 1 tsp dried Pizza Seasoning
• Ghee or any healthy fat you prefer for cooking
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Start with the zucchini, because it requires preparation time. Zucchini is mostly water, so it can end up soggy if you don't prepare it properly. You first want the zucchini to be at room temperature. Then you can spiralize using a spiralizer. Cut the spiralized strands, so they aren't too long.

• Place a steamer basket into a large pot, with a cup of water.
• Dump your spiralized zucchini into the steamer basket, cover and turn the heat to medium.
• When the water is boiling, allow the zucchini to cook for no more than 8 minutes.
• Lift the steamer basket from the pot and set aside, so that the zucchini drains while you're cooking the meat.
• Add ghee to a large skillet and cook the garlic and onion until soft.
• Add the meat and seasonings and cook until brown.
• Add the tomatoes to the meat and simmer for 20 minutes.
• When the meat is done and you're ready to serve, take the zucchini from the steamer basket and put in a colander.
• Salt the zucchini thoroughly, while in the colander, and mix well with tongs in order to allow the last of the water to drain.
• When the zucchini looks dry, plate and spread the meat mixture on top.
• Top with the shredded cheese.
