Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (14.5 ounce) package penne pasta
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 pounds cauliflower florets
1 pound ground beef
2 medium onions, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained

This pasta dish is a great way to use up leftover beef. I always have some leftover beef in my freezer and this is a great way to use it up.

I've never been a fan of cauliflower, but this recipe changed my mind. The cauliflower is so well-hidden in the sauce that you can't even taste it.
