Course: Main Course
Cuisine: American
Servings: 4 generous helpings
- 1 pound ground beef, pork, or turkey
- 3 cups bone broth or water
- 1.5 cups noodles of any kind my favorite is elbow pasta
- 1 tablespoon ketchup or tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon mustard

- 1 scoop bone broth powder* optional, but adds extra flavor and protein
- A sprinkle of dried basil or other herbs to taste
- sprinkle of salt and pepper as needed
- 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt or sour cream
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese for serving
In a large cast iron skillet, brown your meat. When it's cooked, add in your noodles of choice and stock or water.
As the noodles start to cook, add in all the other ingredients except the yogurt and cheese.
Simmer on med-high heat for about 10 minutes, or until noodles are fully cooked. If you happen to run out of liquid before your noodles are cooked, add extra water or stock.
When the noodles are soft, stir in the greek yogurt, and garnish each serving with cheese, if desired.
Enjoy!
