Bolognese Sauce

My sister has a hungry family of 5 and she will often cook up a big batch of bolognese sauce and freeze it off into portions and decide what she will turn it into once she defrosts it – That’s why I am calling this post magic meals. If you prefer to make a vegetarian bolognese sauce with lentils and veggies you can still turn your sauce into any of these 5 magic meals!!

  1. Of course you can serve your bolognese sauce with pasta or vegetable noodles!!
