  • 1 medium carrot, chopped
  • 1 stalk celery, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano (or 1 tablespoon fresh oregano, chopped)
  • 1/2 cup dry red wine
  • 2 cups low-sodium or no-sodium beef broth
  • 1 (14.5 oz) can crushed tomatoes, undrained
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, or to taste
  • 1 pound fettuccine pasta, uncooked (or your choice of pasta)
  • 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving

Instructions

  1. Brown Beef and Sauté Vegetables: In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, brown ground beef over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrot, and celery; cook until softened. Stir in garlic and oregano.
  2. Add Liquids and Seasonings: Pour in red wine, beef broth, and crushed tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper.

Notes

  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor.
