About Lean bolognese sauce

Lean Bolognese Sauce is a lighter take on the traditional Italian classic, originating from Bologna, Italy. This nutrient-packed sauce combines lean ground beef or turkey with aromatic vegetables like onions, garlic, carrots, and celery, slow-cooked in a rich tomato base. Herbs such as basil, oregano, and thyme enhance its robust yet balanced flavor. By using lean proteins and less oil or fat, this version offers a lower-calorie option while still providing essential nutrients like iron and protein. It avoids heavy creams or excess cheese, contributing to reduced saturated fat content. High in fiber from vegetables and tomatoes, Lean Bolognese supports digestion and heart health. Served over whole-grain pasta or zucchini noodles, it becomes a wholesome and satisfying meal for those prioritizing flavor and nutrition alike. While mindful of sodium levels, shoppers should check labels for added salts or sugars in any store-bought tomato products.
