Spaghetti Bolognese

Spaghetti Bolognese

Most of the posts on my site are for recipes I’ve created, usually because that’s just what I fancied at the time. Since starting I have had more and more requests for certain food, particularly from online clients and those wanting their favourite recipes included in their nutrition plans.

I always enjoy spaghetti bolognese but it’s never something I’ve really craved but when a client requested it I thought I’d give it a bash and it turned out awesome! After taking a few ideas from recipes around the web I took what I believed to be the “best bits” and created my own, relatively low calorie, spaghetti bolognese using every day ingredients.
