- Strain rigatoni, then return to the pot, off heat.
- Meanwhile, roughly chop spinach.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then beef and half the Italian Seasoning (use all for 4 servings).
- Cook for 5-6 min, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
- Season with salt and pepper.
- When beef is done, carefully drain and discard excess fat.
