Cooking Steps

Cook beef and peppers
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over high.
  • While pan heats, core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • When the pan is hot, add onions, peppers, beef, Cajun Spice Blend and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar to the dry pan. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook for 4-6 min, stirring often, until veggies are tender-crisp and beef is cooked through.**
Make sauce
2
  • Add stock powder, cream cheese, cream and 1 cup (1 3/4 cups) water. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-high.
Cook penne
3
  • Add penne. Cook for 4-6 min, stirring occasionally, until penne softens and sauce thickens slightly. (TIP: If sauce thickens too quickly before penne is cooked, add more water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)
  • While penne cooks, roughly chop spinach. (TIP: Place spinach in a bowl, then roughly chop using a pair of kitchen shears or scissors!)
Finish and serve
4
  • Remove pan from heat. Add spinach. Stir for 1 min, until spinach wilts.
  • Divide pasta between bowls.

If you've opted to get beef, omit oil, then add onions, peppers, beef, Cajun Spice Blend and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar to the dry pan. Cook beef in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook chorizo.**
