A nutrient loaded, veggie packed bolognese recipe that is my recipe for the Best Bolognese!
Recipe is gluten free, dairy free friendly. It makes the perfect, healthy family friendly dinner and fantastic for bath cooking, meal prep and make-ahead dinners. Freezer friendly too and great for left over lunches.
Recipe notes:
To make this recipe nutrient rich you’ll find a variety of hidden vegetables along with nutrient dense liver. The liver is well balanced with the minced meat so the flavour is subtle and most wont even pick that it is in there. Make sure you use organic liver. I source our organic meat from Sherwood Rd Organics.
