Cooking Steps
Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces. Peel, then cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 ppl) into 1/2-inch pieces. Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then peppers. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp, 3-4 min. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer peppers to a plate. Set aside.
Reheat the same pot over medium-high. When hot, add beef and onions to the dry pot. Cook, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.** Carefully drain and discard excess fat, if desired.
Add Tex-Mex paste, garlic, marinara sauce, broth concentrate, 2 3/4 cups (5 cups) water and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) salt to the pot with beef and onions. Stir to combine, then bring to a boil over high. Once boiling, stir in cavatappi and reduce heat to medium. Simmer uncovered, stirring often to prevent sticking to the pot, until cavatappi is tender, 12-16 min. (TIP: If pasta is sticking too much, add more water, 1/4 cup at a time. Scrape up any pieces stuck to the bottom of the pot.)
Add peppers, spinach and half the cheese to the pot with cavatappi. Cook, stirring often, until spinach wilts, 1-2 min. Season with pepper, to taste.
Divide Southwest-style beef and cavatappi between bowls.Sprinkle remaining cheese over top.
