About Bolognese red sauce with pasta

Bolognese red sauce with pasta is a classic Italian dish originating from Bologna, celebrated for its rich flavors and hearty texture. The sauce features ground meat, typically beef or pork, cooked alongside onions, garlic, carrots, and celery. It is simmered with tomatoes, herbs, and a splash of red wine for depth. Served over pasta, such as tagliatelle or spaghetti, this dish brings a balance of protein from the meat and carbohydrates from the pasta. While it offers essential nutrients like iron, vitamin A, and fiber from the vegetables, its calorie and fat content can be higher depending on portion size, meat cuts, and use of oil or cheese toppings. Versions using lean meat and whole-grain pasta can enhance its health profile, making it a satisfying option for a balanced meal. Bolognese is a timeless recipe loved worldwide for its comforting taste and versatility.
