Loaded Spaghetti Bolognese

Spag Bol is pretty much a household staple in most family homes. Its also a great way to hide some veggies from fussy kids.

Adding the Odi Meal Booster & Bone Broth just take this spaghetti bol to the next level. Every mouthful is loaded with nutrients to support the whole family from first tastes to teens & beyond.

Ingredients: 

  • 500gms (ideally grass fed organic) beef mince

  • 1 onion, finely chopped

  • 4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped

  • 1 carrot, finely diced

  • 1 zucchini, finely diced

  • 1 capsicum, finely diced

  • 1⁄2 broccoli head diced

  • 4 roma tomatoes, cubed

  • 1 1/2 cups roughly chopped mushrooms

  • 10 pitted olives, finely sliced

  • 1/3 cup tomato paste

  • 1 can crushed tomatoes (look for organic BPA free)

  • 1 1/2 cups organic passata

  • 3 bay leaves

  • 2 teaspoons Odi NutriDense Meal Booster and/or Odi Bone Broth

  • Grated cheese to finish

  • salt and pepper to season

  • pasta of choice or zucchini noodles for serving

Method:

  1. Saute onion, garlic and carrot on a medium heat in a good lug of olive oil till the vegetables soften and begin to caramelise.
  2. Add mince & garlic, cook till brown.
  3. Add all other ingredients, season well, stir thoroughly and then cover the pot with its lid bringing the bolognese to a soft boil, then turn to simmer.
  4. Ideally the longer you simmer the more depth of flavour will develop, I cook mine for minimum of 1 hour or until a thick rich sauce. Add Odi NutriDense Meal Booster towards the end of the cooking process to retain maximum nutrients.
  5. Serve on al dente pasta or zoodles and finish with shavings of parmesan.
    Pro Tip: This bolognese freezes beautifully. Double the batch and freeze portions for busy nights.
