• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Halve, peel, and dice onion into 1⁄2-inch pieces. Halve, core, and dice bell pepper into 1⁄2-inch pieces.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to soften, 2-3 minutes.
• Add beef* and Loisa Organic Sazón Seasoning to pan with veggies; season with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-5 minutes. TIP: Carefully drain any excess grease from pan. • Stir in crushed tomatoes and 1⁄4 tsp sugar (1⁄2 tsp for 4 servings). Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened, 4-6 minutes.
• Meanwhile, once water is boiling, add spaghetti to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until just al dente, 8-10 minutes (pasta will finish cooking in Step 5). • Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water (11⁄2 cups for 4 servings), then drain.
• Add drained spaghetti and 1⁄2 cup reserved pasta cooking water (3⁄4 cup for 4 servings) to pan with sauce. Cook, stirring, until pasta is evenly coated, 1-2 minutes. TIP: If needed, stir in additional reserved pasta cooking water a splash at a time until spaghetti is coated in sauce. • Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.
• Divide pasta between bowls and serve. ***Ground Beef is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.***
