Once pasta is tender, stir and then top with mozzarella cheese. Cover to let the cheese melt and then serve!

Tips and Variations:

If you want to add more tomato texture, dry adding in an additional can of diced tomatoes.
Swap out the ground beef for Italian sausage or ground turkey.
Toss in a cup of frozen peas and carrots at the end to sneak in some veggies!
Sprinkle in a little parmesan cheese with the mozzarella if desired.
Serve with a side salad and garlic knots for a complete dinner!
