Spaghetti Bolognese is a popular Italian pasta dish served with a tomato-based meat sauce. This is the fondest childhood pasta memory of mine, and also the earliest pastas I know of & enjoyed when I was a kid. Ordering a plate from anyplace was such a treat back then. Now, I get to enjoy this dish with a yummy home-made bolognese sauce.

The meat sauce can be prepared in advanced – warm the sauce and combine it with the cooked pasta just before serving. In fact, I made a huge batch of sauce over the weekend, freeze the extras in individual serving bags and thaw them when needed. In this way, we can have delicious bolognese pasta dinners anytime, even on busy weekday nights.
I love “spag bol” in all its incarnations. This one, included. ;)
Makes me hungry just by looking at the photos. It’s money well spent for a homely and healthy meal, yah?
Glad I had an extra helping, yummy! :D
As usual u torture me with your food pictures! Now I’m really hungry….don’t u dare go to bed
as I’m coming over!
i think you’re being hard on yourself! i don’t have time to make my own tomato paste! the ‘cheating’ part is not simmering your ragu for like 3 hours. but who cares. still looks yum and you followed the traditional rules by not using a tomato-sauce base!!
the only thing i would say to add next time is some red wine. you’ll notice a bit of a kick w/ the sauce!
I love Bolognese. I think it’s my favorite comfort food…better than mac ‘n cheese any day. Thanks for sharing with Presto pasta Night.
That spaghetti bolognese looks really good! Nice photos.
Nothing wrong with easy meals that taste good — every cook should have a few of those in her repertoire!
I’m also a cheater this week with pasta! Hahhaa….but who cares if it makes yummy-sense and value :D
I usually use a can of tomatoes as my pasta base. Is it consider cheating too :P
Your pasta looks so yummy!
