Recipe Reviews
Takes a while to make this but not too bad, though the vegan lemon spaghetti actually tasted better.
I made this for my grandma and my brother it was terrific they both loved it a lot and I would definitely make it again, though I would recommend adding sundried tomatoes instead of cherry ones.
Finally a proper bolognese meal so proud of Lilly!
I actually added some mozarella cheese to this too and it was soo delicious.
Normally i'm a horrible cook and my husband does everything but he said I did really good and it's the best thing I ever made! I decided to add only 3 cloves of garlic instead of 4 and also tossed in a bit of red pepper :)
Loving this bolognese more than any other ordinary pasta me and my hubby are huge meat fans and this is the BOMB!
Cooked this for spaghetti Monday and it's a huge crowd pleaser, the whole family gobbled it up in under seconds.
Delizioso tasted as good as it looks basically just like the picture.
I think there's actually way too much meat in this so I didn't add any pork sausage, the ground beef was plenty and the meal was still good.
Traditional is always best when it comes to pasta
Replaced beef with turkey and pork, delicious.
Didn't know what I did wrong but for some reason my pasta was kinda thin :(
This was absolutely mouth watering! I recommend making it with some garlic bread and a side of wine.
Obsessing over this bolognese pasta, totally amazing.
Smelt amazing the whole family was floating towards the kitchen when this was done haha!
Can't get enough of these badass recipes they are all so flavorful unique and not too pricey, way better than spending funds at a resturant.
Becareful when adding the oil in this I added a little too much and it wasn't too pleasent but that's on me.
Dodged the carrots and cherry tomatoes then just added sundried tomatoes instead.
This bolognese was alright but kinda hard to perfect.
Not too happy with how it turned out I think there was just too much going on in one bowl but atleast my husband liked it.
Well done! Verified!
