It&# 226;ÂÂs a perfect weeknight solution that requires minimal cleanup and uses pantry staples. Serve hot with a sprinkle of Parmesan for a family-friendly dinner that feels both rustic and indulgent. The combination of meaty richness and bright acidity from the tomatoes makes every bite delicious and filling.Ingredients

Stir in the garlic powder, dried Italian seasoning, and salt, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.

Add the chopped whole tomatoes and tomato paste to the skillet, stirring to combine with the meat.

Note
For best results, ensure the skillet is large enough to hold all ingredients without overcrowding.
If the mixture seems too thick, add a splash of water or broth during simmering.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove with a little water to restore creaminess.
This recipe is not suitable for vegetarians due to the ground chuck. For a vegetarian version, substitute the beef with lentils or mushrooms.
