Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir beef and onion in the hot oil until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in spaghetti sauce, zucchini, mushrooms, and carrot, season with salt and pepper. Simmer until flavors combine, about 5 minutes.

Recipe Note

On a health kick and missing my meat pies, I made this low-fat version. All the pastry without all the fat. A great way to get some vegetables into the kids as well - they loved it!
