1 lb ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
1 zucchini, sliced
3 garlic cloves, chopped
5 cups water
2 cans diced tomatoes (with garlic and olive oil)
1 can tomato sauce
1 cups mafalda pasta uncooked (the mini-lasagna noodles)
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning

Start by sautéing the beef, onions zucchini and garlic. When the meat is cooked and the onions look tender, drain any excess liquids. Then add in the water, diced tomatoes and tomato sauce.
