Hi Mari,
ReplyDeleteI have tried making spaghetti bolognese with turkey mince and even quorn in the past, but a certain person always spots the difference immediately and puts in a complaint to the chef, so now it's minced beef or nothing!
We will often have bolognese with pasta rather than spaghetti and I would generally not use quite so much tomato sauce, throwing in quite a selection of other ingredients such as mushrooms, peas, diced green beans and possibly sweetcorn!
As you can probably tell, I am not much of a gourmet cook, however meals are usually tasty and I do get quite a few comments of praise.
Needless to say, we don't entertain an awful lot and tend to eat out in those circumstances ... Perhaps this is what comes of not having had any children to cater for!
Have a great weekend,
Yvonne.
I wonder if my husband would notice? :) I have some still in the freezer. I should warm it up for dinner this week.
DeleteThis looks like a healthy variation of traditional bolognese sauce... I should give it a try!
ReplyDeleteI like using ground turkey occasionally for pasta sauces. :)
ReplyDeleteI have never made spaghetti sauce with ground turkey, that's a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI might try this with chicken - we don't get a lot of turkey here. Cheers from Carole's Chatter
ReplyDeleteOoooh I like the addition of yellow pepper! Every couple of weeks I make a huge batch of meaty spaghetti sauce to freeze. I might have to try it with turkey next time and see who notices.
ReplyDeleteI haven't used ground turkey in a long time. A nice way to make sauce a little healthier.
ReplyDeleteI have never *gasp* made spaghetti sauce from scratch. I should probably change that, eh?
ReplyDeleteYours looks lovely!
Simple and healthful!
ReplyDeleteMy husband absolutely refuses to try ground turkey in anything! I think it's bad memories from the mystery meats of our childhood, and try to tell him that good-quality ground turkey would be nothing like the gristly, inexpensive stuff he's remembering, but it's no good! We do make our own spaghetti sauce, though, and always end up with way too much! Yours looks delish!
