  • 8 ounces lean ground beef

  • 4 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir beef and onion in the hot oil until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in spaghetti sauce, zucchini, mushrooms, and carrot; season with salt and pepper. Simmer until flavors combine, about 5 minutes.
