- 1 tbsp. olive oil
- 1 cup finely chopped yellow onion
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 lb. lean ground beef
- 28 oz. can crushed tomatoes
- 14.5 oz. can diced tomatoes
- ½ tsp. dried oregano
- ½ tsp. dried basil
- salt and pepper
- 12 oz. whole-wheat elbow pasta
- 2 ½ cups water
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 1 ½ cups grated mozzarella cheese divided
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Heat olive oil in a large (5 quart) skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft, about 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Add beef and cook until browned, crumbling into small pieces.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, oregano, basil, and a little salt and pepper. Cook at a low simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the pasta and water. Cover and increase the heat to a vigorous simmer. Cook, stirring often, until pasta is just tender, 13-15 minutes. Remove from the heat.
Stir in the cheddar cheese and ½ cup of the mozzarella. Sprinkle with the remaining mozzarella and Parmesan. Bake, uncovered, until cheese is melted and slightly browned, about 10 minutes.
