- 2/3 cup diced onion
- 1 lb 90% lean ground beef (or your choice of protein or veggie ground)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons The Fit Cook Land Seasoning (OR Italian Seasoning)

- 1 can (15oz) no salt added diced tomatoes

Steps
- Set a pot on medium heat. Once hot, add oil, garlic and onion. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the onions are sauteed – brown and slightly translucent.
- Add the ground meat and chop it up as it cooks. Sprinkle in the seasoning as it cooks.
- Add diced tomatoes and tomato sauce from the cans. Add water to the tomato sauce can, swish it around, then pour that into the pot as well. Add a few pinches of sea salt and pepper and stir. Reduce the heat to low, then cover and cook for 15 minutes.
- While the meat cooks, prep the veggies. Use a Julienne peeler, or a sharp knife, to cut the veggies into thin noodles or strips. Use a sharp knife to cut thick asparagus spears into thinner spears.
- Set a large skillet on medium high heat, once hot add spray with oil and add bell pepper and asparagus. Stir, then add 1/2 cup of water to create steam. Cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the bell peppers and asparagus is softer. Remove the top and allow the steam and water to evaporate, careful to ensure nothing is burning.
- Add the olive oil to the skillet, then the remaining veggies. Use tongs to continuously fold everything together. Add the remaining water, pinch of sea salt & pepper, and cover and cook for about 2 minutes, until wilted and soft (NOT slimy). Remove from the heat.
- Serve the meat sauce over the noodles. Garnish and enjoy!
