Ingredients:
1
tsp olive oil
1 pound 95% lean ground beef
3/4 cup diced onion
3/4 cup diced sweet green pepper
2 seeded, fresh jalapeno peppers, minced (use

1 (28 ounce) can whole tomatoes
2 cups nonfat sour cream
1 tablespoon clover honey
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces uncooked penne or macaroni pasta
Instructions:
Add
the olive oil to a 5 quart nonstick saucepan and
place over medium-high heat.
Add
the ground beef, breaking it up with the edge of
a spatula, until it has lost its pink color. Drain
any fat from the pan.
Add
the onions and green pepper, cooking until softened.
Stir in the jalapeno peppers, tomatoes, sour cream,
honey, chili powder and salt.
Add
the pasta. Stir, cover, lower the heat and gently
simmer until the pasta is tender, about 25 minutes.
Stir every five minutes, to keep the pasta from
sticking to the saucepan bottom.
