Happy Wednesday! It’s time for a hump day treat recipe to help everyone after last night’s election. Now there are some recipes that I use over and over again and this is one of my favorites. When making bolognese sauce there are many combinations that you can use. You can use ground turkey, ground turkey with lamb, ground meat with veal or pretty much anything you can really think of. I personally like using ground turkey but it’s all up to personal preference.

Ingredients:

1 onion

1 package of ground meat of your choosing

1 can of tomato sauce

1 can of tomato paste

1 package of mushrooms

Olive oil

Salt & pepper

1 large frying pan

Directions:

1.Cut onion into cubes and sautee with olive oil until they start to yellow

2.Cut up Mushrooms and add them into the pan with the onions

3.When the veggies are softened, add meat in chunks. Flip and move around until meat is fully browned and break into smaller pieces

4.Add salt/ pepper as the meat is cooking

5.Add ¼ cup of Red Wine (This is an option step that I have done in the past, but the bolognese still tastes great without it)

6.Add tomato paste (full mini can); mix it around

7.Add tomato sauce. You want it so that it’s a sauce consistency and not sloppy joe consistency

8.ENJOY!

I personally pair this with Banza chickpea pasta with garlic bread and a vegetable. Banza and now have spaghetti style pasta that I just tried the other night with my best friend Randi and it is amazing! She couldn’t get enough of it. Hope you all enjoy <3
