Ingredients
- 370 g pasta
- 1 1/2 cups minced beef
- 146 grams pasta sauce
- 146 grams vegetables (onion, green peppers, and mushrooms)
- Breadcrumbs, as needed
- Italian seasoning
- Parmesan cheese (dry)
- Oil or butter (optional)
Instructions
- Set your dehydrator temperature to 57 °C. Pre-cook the pasta and dehydrate for 4 hours. Also, dehydrate the spaghetti sauce on a different tray at the same temperature for 6 hours.
- Dice and saute the onions. Then dehydrate together with the green peppers and mushrooms at 57 °C for 5 hours.
- Then, cook the lean minced beef. Drain off the fat, mix with breadcrumbs, and Italian seasonings. Stir the mixture occasionally while dehydrating at 71 °C for 8 hours. Combine all in a plastic bag.
- In separate bags, store the dry parmesan cheese and oil or butter (if using).
- Boil about 3 cups of water and transfer into a bowl. Add in all the ingredients except oil and cheese.
- Mix and allow to sit in a cozy for 15 minutes until well-rehydrated. When the water is absorbed, add the cheese for improved texture and oil if you desire. Enjoy.
