Satisfy your family's appetite with a hearty and delicious dish that's perfect for a busy weeknight dinner!

🍽️ Ingredients 🍽️
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar or Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 12 oz bowtie (farfalle) pasta
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, for garnish

🧑‍🍳 Directions 🧑‍🍳
1. Begin by cooking the bowtie pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Once cooked, drain and set aside.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing for about 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
3. Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until the beef is thoroughly browned, which should take about 5-7 minutes. Remember to drain any excess fat.
4. Mix in the diced tomatoes, beef broth, paprika, salt, and pepper. Allow this to simmer for 5-10 minutes to let the flavors combine nicely.
5. Reduce the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Continue stirring until the mixture is well combined. Next, add the shredded cheese and stir until it is melted and the sauce becomes creamy.
6. Toss the cooked pasta into the skillet, ensuring it's well coated with the creamy beef sauce. Let it heat through for an additional 2-3 minutes.
7. Serve the pasta warm, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
