For a vegetarian option, substitute the ground beef with plant-based crumbles or an additional can of beans. Feel free to add a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra heat. A dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of shredded cheese makes a wonderful topping. This dish can be made ahead of time and reheated, making it perfect for meal prepping.

01 Step
Recipe View In a large pot, bring the water to a rolling boil. Add sea salt. Introduce the cavatappi pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente, approximately 10-12 minutes. Drain the pasta thoroughly and give it a quick rinse.
02 Step
Recipe View While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and softened, about 5-10 minutes. Increase the heat to medium-high, add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook, breaking the beef apart with a spoon, until it is browned and crumbly, about 5-10 minutes. Drain any excess grease from the skillet and return it to the heat.
03 Step
Recipe View Stir in the tomato sauce, chili powder, and ground cumin into the ground beef mixture. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomato sauce is heated through and the spices are fragrant, approximately 3 minutes. Add the cooked cavatappi to the meat sauce, ensuring that the pasta is evenly coated. Stir in the seasoned black beans and freshly ground black pepper. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have melded together beautifully, about 5 minutes. Serve hot and enjoy!
