Ingredients

  • 1  egg, lightly beaten
  • 1  cup purchased pasta sauce
  • 1/2  cup fine dry bread crumbs
  • 1/4  cup fresh basil leaves, coarsely chopped if large
  • 1  lb. lean ground beef
  • 1  cup shredded mozzarella cheese (4 oz.)
  • 1  12-oz. pkg. fresh green beans, trimmed
  • 1  Tbsp. olive oil
  •   Crushed red pepper (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to boiling. In large bowl combine egg, 1/2 cup of the pasta sauce, bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons of the basil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add beef and 1/2 cup of the cheese; mix well. Divide beef mixture in four equal portions. Shape each portion in a 5-1/2x2-inch oval. Place on 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Spoon on remaining pasta sauce and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake 15 minutes or until internal temperature registers 160 degrees F.
