Ingredients
Method
In bowl, combine beef, garlic, thyme and 1/2 tsp (2 mL) each of the salt and pepper; roll by scant 1 tbsp (15 mL) into balls.
In large saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat; brown meatballs, in batches and turning often, about 5 minutes. Remove to plate. Drain fat from pan.
Add onion, red pepper, carrots and remaining salt and pepper to pan; fry over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in tomato paste; cook for 2 minutes. Add stock and bring to boil, stirring and scraping up brown bits from bottom of pan. Return meatballs to pan; reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
Add broccoli and noodles; simmer until noodles are tender and digital rapid-read thermometer inserted into several meatballs reads 160°F (70°C), about 5 minutes.
