Pin itFollow us 148.4k

Nothing says comfort like a good one-pot. This sizzling beef and spinach dish has bags of flavour and with just 20 minutes hands on cooking time it's a great family winner dinner.

Works really well as left overs for lunch the next day too, if it makes it that far! I made this with steak mince but you could also make it with frying steak if you prefer, just make sure you adjust the cooking times accordingly.

Top with mozzarella and place in the oven to melt for that stringy cheese treat when you pull your fork out!

Instructions

1. Peel and dice the carrots and onion.

3. Drain the juices in a cup and discard. Once cool, put in the bin, not down the sink or it will block the drain.

5. Add the chopped tomatoes, tomato puree, stock, oregano, coconut aminos, bay leaves, salt and pepper and simmer for about 20 minutes on a medium heat. Reduce to a low heat and cook for a further 10 minutes until the sauce has thickened. Preheat the oven to 190 °C/ 375 °F (fan assisted).

7. Slice or grate the mozzarella and add to the top of the sizzling beef and spinach one-pot. Bake in the oven for 5 minutes until melted. Once melted, remove from the oven, top with fresh parsley and serve. Enjoy immediately or let it cool down and store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
