Pizza Spaghetti Skillet 5 points

[Leesa68 10]

This recipe is delicious and so easy to fix. It is what I like to call a one skillet wonder because it is all prepared in one skillet. I have fixed this many times for my family and they request it often! It is a good size portion for 5 points too. I like to fix a tossed salad and garlic toast when I have this!

 

PIZZA SPAGHETTI SKILLET

Serves 4 (1 1/4 cups)

8 ounces of extra-lean ground beef or turkey breast (I use the turkey)

1 cup chopped onion (I only use 1/2 cup)

2 cups of chopped fresh mushrooms ( I use a 4 oz. can drained)

1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained

1 (8 ounce ) can hunt's tomato sauce

1 cup water

1 tablespoon pizza or italian seasoning ( I have never found the pizza seasoning so I use the italian and I use less than the tablespoon as it is a strong seasoning)

1 tablespoon splenda Granular

1 cup broken uncooked spaghetti

1/4 cup sliced ripe olives

3/4 cup shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese

 

In a large skillet sprayed with olive oil flavored cooking spray, brown meat, onion and fresh mushrooms. Add undrained tomatoes, tomato sauce, water, italian seasoning and splenda. Mix well to combine. Stir in uncooked spaghetti and olives. (If you are using canned mushrooms, then add them now) Lower heat, cover and simmer for 15 min or until spaghetti is tender, stirring occasionally. Just before serving, stir in mozzarella cheese.

I made this last week, and everyone loved it! I doubled the recipe but did not double the water or the seasoning. This was so easy and a real winner! Thanks for posting!

You are welcome MarlaB! Glad you enjoyed it. My whole family loves it better than regular spaghetti and puts in a request for it often!
