Ingredients
- 2 tbsp. Olive oil
- 1 lb. Ground beef
- 28 ounces Peeled whole tomatoes
- 2 tbsp. Tomato paste
- 1/2 cup Onion (chopped)
- 2 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Oregano
- 2 tsp Basil
- 2 tsp Sweetener (erythritol for Keto, sugar for non-keto)
- 2 tsp Salt
- 3 oz. Red wine (optional)
- 1/4 tsp Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 6 Zucchini (spiralized)
- 2/3 cup grated Parmesan
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pan (or pot) to make the Bolognese sauce. Add the meat and cook for 4 minutes, breaking it down with a wooden spoon to crumble it while cooking.
- Add the onion, salt, garlic, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, and sweetener. Add the tomato paste and tomatoes. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Using a wooden spoon, stir the tomatoes to break them into smaller pieces.
- Cook uncovered for 20-25 more minutes on medium-low heat until the sauce is thick and the tomatoes are cooked and tender, stirring occasionally. The longer you cook the meat and tomatoes, the better the sauce will taste.
- Spiralize zucchini (alternatively, use regular or low-carb pasta). (You can cook the zucchini in a pan with some oil for 3-5 minutes or serve them raw).
- Serve zucchini noodles with the Bolognese sauce and topped with cheese.
