Cooking Steps
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Peel, then cut onion into 1/2-inch pieces.
- 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 Beyond Meat® patties and onions to the dry pot.
- Cook, breaking up patties into smaller pieces, until crispy, 5-6 min.**
- Add Tex-Mex paste, crushed tomatoes, broth concentrate, 2 cups water (3 1/2 cups) and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) salt to the pot with Beyond Meat® and onions.
- Stir to combine, then bring to 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, 14-16 min. (TIP: If pasta sticks 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 Beyond Meat® and cavatappi between bowls.
- Sprinkle remaining cheese over top.
If you've opted to get Beyond Meat®, cook and plate it the same way as the beef, breaking up patties into smaller pieces, until crispy, 5-6 min.** Disregard instructions to drain excess fat.
