Vicky's Famous Spaghetti Bolognese Sauce


Make a BIG batch and keep for leftovers!
This is my basic meaty and vegetably sauce.

YOU NEED:
1 tablespoon olive oil
500 grams ground beef, chicken, turkey, lamb, or pork. [i usually go with turkey or chicken as it's the leanest]
1 bottle tomato sauce, i usually go with roasted garlic or basil, with NO SUGAR ADDED. organic if you can get it. 
5 or so large mushrooms, sliced
1 small zucchini, diced
1 small green or red pepper, diced
1 smallish red or white onion, diced
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon thyme
a bit of fresh basil
3 cloves minced garlic
pasta OR spaghetti squash

1. in a pan, heat a bit of olive oil. toss in minced garlic, meat. fry until cooked.
2. add in vegetables, add in dijon and worcestershire sauce.
3. add in tomato sauce. simmer for a good 20 mins on low. add in herbs. 
4. hope you've boiled the pasta at this point.
5. top pasta with sauce and parmesan!
