To prepare this delicious zucchini bolognese spaghetti recipe with ground beef, we will start by preparing the ingredients. You will need 2 large zucchinis, 1 medium onion, 1 bell pepper (preferably red or yellow for a pop of color), 300 g of ground beef, 2 tablespoons of tomato paste, olive oil, salt, pepper, and spices to taste, such as oregano or basil. You can also add a few fresh basil leaves for extra flavor.

The first step is to peel the onion and bell pepper. Chop the onion finely and dice the bell pepper. In a large skillet, add 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil and heat it over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the onion and bell pepper, letting them sauté for 5-7 minutes until they become translucent and slightly golden. This step will add a delicious aromatic base for the sauce.

After the vegetables have sautéed, add the ground beef. Mix well and let the meat brown, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. When the meat is well cooked, add the tomato paste. Mix everything so that the sauce integrates evenly with the other ingredients. Let the mixture cook for a few more minutes for the flavors to combine and the sauce to thicken.

Meanwhile, let's take care of the zucchinis. Peel the zucchinis and cut them into thin strips using a vegetable peeler. These zucchinis will replace traditional spaghetti, providing a healthier and lower-calorie option. Add the zucchinis to the skillet over the meat and vegetable mixture and mix well. Let everything cook for another 5-10 minutes until the zucchinis become slightly soft but not overcooked.

Finally, season the sauce with salt, pepper, and other preferred spices, then serve the dish warm, garnished with fresh basil leaves. This zucchini bolognese spaghetti recipe with ground beef is not only delicious but also an excellent choice for a healthy, nutrient-packed meal. Enjoy this recipe with family or friends, savoring every bite!
