Fresh pasta shells are quickly cooked with classic seasonings from ground beef—certified organic, so it’s better for you and the environment—and a tomato-based sauce that turns rosée from a touch of cream. Roasted red pepper paste gives a balsamic vinaigrette extra tanginess on a celery-crunched salad.

Preparation
Cook the beef
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the beef*, garlic and tomato paste. Cook, breaking up the meat, 4 to 6 min., until browned and cooked through.
Boil the pasta
Meanwhile, add the pasta to the pot of boiling water; stir gently to separate. Boil, 3 to 4 min., until al dente. Reserving ½ cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, separate the lettuce leaves; tear the leaves. Thinly slice the celery crosswise.
Make the sauce & combine the pasta
To the pan of beef, add the cream, pasta, ½ the cheese and ½ the reserved cooking water. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 min., until combined; season with S&P. If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the remaining cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
Make the salad & serve
In a large bowl, combine the ajvar, vinegar and 3 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions). Add the lettuce, celery and S&P. Divide the pasta between your plates. Garnish with the remaining cheese. Serve the salad on the side. Bon appétit!
