Confession: A cook might be obsessed with zucchini noodles.
Cooks have literally been making them so much lately because they practically go with everything! Well since A cook was craving spaghetti (yet again), A cook figured A cook would share with you the favorite way to make s simple bolognese sauce and pair it with none other than, yes, zoodles. This recipe is basically a variation of the tomato sauce, but with a few minor adjustments. The best part is this e
What goes in
- 6 medium zucchini, spiralized
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 stalk celery, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 pound. ground turkey or ground beef
- 1 (28 ounces) can crushed tomatoes
- 1 (6 ounces) can tomato paste
- ½ cup dry red wine
- 1 teaspoon. dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon. dried basil
- ½ tsp. salt
- ¼ tsp. black pepper
- 2 bay leaves
- Fresh basil, chopped as garnish
How it comes together
- Spiralize your zucchini and hold nearby on paper towels so that any excess water is soaked up. Feel free to sprinkle with a little salt to help with this.
- Drizzle olive oil in a large saucepan over a lively burner and saute onion, celery and garlic until the aroma shows, about 3 minutes. Add ground turkey (or beef) and cook until crumbled and brown, draining excess liquid as necessary.
- Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for about 30 minutes.
- For the zoodles, drizzle olive oil in a large skillet over a lively burner and saute garlic until the aroma shows. Add zucchini noodles and cook for about 1 to 2 minutes until tender. *If you didn't already add salt while the water was getting soaked up feel free to sprinkle a little on them now for flavor.
- Top zucchini noodles with the bolognese sauce, serve and enjoy!
