-------- ------------ --------------------------------
3 cloves garlic -- crushed and peeled
2 medium carrots -- cut into 2 -inch pieces
10 oz mushrooms -- fresh, white, large, cut in half
1 large onion -- cut into 2-inch pieces
1 lb beef -- lean ground, 90% lean
2 tsp thyme -- dried
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper -- black ground
2 cups water
14 oz broth -- reduced-sodium beef, divided
8 oz pasta -- whole-wheat, elbow macaroni, (2 cups)
2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp flour -- all-purpose
1/2 cup sour cream -- reduced-fat
1 Tbsp parsley -- fresh, or chives, chopped, for garnish
Fit a food processor with the steel blade attachment. With the motor
running, drop garlic through the feed tube and process until minced,
then add carrots and mushrooms and process until finely chopped. Turn
it off, add onion, and pulse until roughly chopped.
Cook beef in a large straight-sided skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high
heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, 3 to
5 minutes. Stir in the chopped vegetables, thyme, salt and pepper and
cook, stirring often, until the vegetables start to soften and the
mushrooms release their juices, 5 to 7 minutes.
Stir in water, 1 1/2 cups broth, noodles and Worcestershire sauce; bring
to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally,
until the pasta is tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
Whisk flour with the remaining 1/4 cup broth in a small bowl until smooth;
stir into the hamburger mixture. Stir in the sour cream. Simmer, stirring
often, until the sauce is thickened, about 2 minutes. Serve sprinkled
with parsley (or chives), if desired.

Description:
"Very finely chopping onion, mushrooms and carrots in the food processor
is not only fast—it makes the vegetables hard to detect for picky eaters.
They also form the base for the sauce of this ground beef skillet supper.
Make it a meal: Serve with a green salad."
