Creamy Beef and Bowtie Pasta

Directions:

1. Brown the Beef:
   In a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat, cook the ground beef until no longer pink, breaking it apart as it cooks. Season with salt and pepper. Drain excess grease if needed.

2. Sauté Aromatics:
   Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3–4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

3. Combine Liquids & Pasta:
   Pour in the beef broth and heavy cream, stirring well. Bring the mixture to a light boil.

4. Cook the Pasta:
   Add the bowtie pasta, reduce heat to a gentle simmer, and cover. Cook for 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is tender and the sauce thickens.

5. Add Cheese:
   Once the pasta is cooked, stir in the shredded cheese until fully melted and the sauce is creamy.

6. Serve:
   Adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs or extra cheese if desired.

Enjoy your delicious, creamy pasta!
