Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef hamburger
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt plus about ⅛ cup reserved
  • 3 cloves garlic pressed or minced
  • ½ yellow onion chopped
  • 2 carrot peeled and chopped
  • 3 celery ribs chopped
  • ¼ cup white wine
  • ¼ cup milk low-fat
  • 2 15- ounce crushed tomato canned
  • 2 15- ounce tomato sauce canned
  • ¼ cup tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon oregano dried
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 cup zucchini grated
  • ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese fresh shredded, or fresh mozzarella
  • 1 pound spaghetti noodles
  • 12 corn taco shells white

Instructions

  1. In a dutch oven or a large heavy-bottom sauce pan, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Add hamburger and garlic and cook for 5-8 minutes.
  2. Add onion, carrots and celery and cook for another 5 minutes or until onion is transparent.
  3. Add wine and cook for 4-5 minutes or until cooked down.
  4. Add milk and cook 4-5 minutes or until cooked down.
  5. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, tomato paste, oregano, balsamic vinegar and bring to a low boil. Add grated zucchini. Reduce heat to simmer, cover and cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
  6. About 15 minutes before sauce is done, bring a large stock pot of water to a boil. Add enough salt (about ⅛ cup) to make water taste like the ocean and cook spaghetti noodles until al dente, about 8 -10 minutes. Add noodles to sauce and mix well. Remove from heat.
  7. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place taco shells on a baking sheet and toast for 3-4 minutes or until golden. Remove from oven.
  8. Fill taco shells with spaghetti noodles and sauce and garnish with cheese.
