Protein Swap | Fresh Pappardelle with Ground Pork
Wilted Greens & Grana Padano
Fresh pasta sets a fast pace. Generously thick and quick, ribbons of pappardelle have just the right amount of bite. Toss them with browned ground pork that’s all sorts of savoury, and fling in some leafy greens. Finished with butter and Grana Padano, it fits like a velvet glove.

- Boil, stirring often to separate the strands, 2 to 3 min., until al dente.
- Reserving ½ cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.

- Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until the spinach has wilted.
Combine the pasta
- To the pan of beef and spinach, add the pasta, demi-glace and ½ the cheese.
- Gradually add the reserved cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
- Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until the pasta is heated through and combined.
