About Homemade bolognese sauce

Homemade Bolognese Sauce is a rich, flavorful meat-based sauce rooted in Italian cuisine, specifically from Bologna. Made with ground beef or pork, onions, carrots, celery, tomatoes, garlic, and a splash of red wine, it’s slow-cooked to perfection, allowing the ingredients to meld together into a hearty, satisfying dish. Packed with protein from the meat and nutrients from the vegetables, it can be a wholesome option when paired with whole grain pasta or zoodles. Using fresh, quality ingredients keeps additives and preservatives at bay, while cooking it at home allows control over sodium levels. However, its calorie count can increase depending on the amount of oil or added cheese. This versatile sauce serves as both a comfort food and an opportunity to boost nutrition by incorporating leaner meats and additional vegetables for a healthier twist on a timeless classic.
