About This Recipe
Spaghetti Bolognese is an all-time classic, but usually done with white flour in the sauce and wheat-flour pasta which can make it both calorific and problematic to those who have a gluten intolerance. Our gluten free recipe uses the best quality beef you can buy and marries it with our nutrition-packed Tomato Fondue Brilliant Base to create a delicious sauce.
The fresh veg in it add a whole host of vitamins and as they’re ‘melted’ into the sauce, younger members of your Elevated clan won’t be trying to pick them out. By spiralising or Julienne-ing courgettes, it becomes a low-carb/high protein dish too. Perfect for those looking for a lighter option.
