Equipment

  • 1 Cutting Board
  • 1 Knife
  • 1 Large Skillet
  • 1 Spatula
  • 1 Measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 Green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 Yellow onion, diced
  • 1 lb lean ground beef I used 96/4
  • 2 tbsp Minced garlic
  • 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 cups Beef or chicken broth
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 2 Laughing Cow Light Cheese Wedges
  • 10 oz Pasta shells or pasta shape of choice
  • 1 cup Shredded Italian cheese
  • 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet or pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high
    heat.
  • Add the diced peppers, onions and minced garlic to the
    skillet. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes, or until the onions
    become translucent and fragrant.
  • Add the lean ground beef to the skillet. Break it apart with
    a spoon and cook until it's no longer pink, stirring
    occasionally to ensure even cooking. Season with salt and
    pepper to taste.
  • Add Italian seasoning and Worcestershire sauce. Stirring until distributed.
  • Pour in the broth, milk, and laughing cow cheese wedges.
    Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
  • Carefully add the pasta to the skillet. Make sure it's evenly
    distributed in the liquid.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and cover the skillet with a
    lid. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 12-15 minutes,
    or until the pasta is cooked al dente. Stir occasionally to
    prevent sticking.
  • Taste a small piece of pasta to ensure it's cooked to your
    desired tenderness. If needed, add a little more broth and
    continue simmering until it reaches the desired texture.
    Once the pasta is cooked, remove the skillet from heat.
  • Once the pasta is cooked, remove the skillet from heat.
    Sprinkle the shredded Italian cheese over the top of the
    mixture.
  • Cover the skillet with a lid and let it sit for a few minutes to
    allow the cheese to melt and the flavors to meld together. Enjoy!
