Bolognese with macaroni and zucchini "pasta"
Busy days at the moment. I don't even have time for exercising *cry*. Was away all day for some information on the new application system for all kids moving from compulsory school to college. Came home, cooked this dinner and then did some work on the dissertation for a couple of hours. Now I'm browsing Tumblr.com and dreaming about peanutbutter. Duh.
Anyway, made a nice filling dinner tonight. Bolognese sauce with macaroni, zucchini and lettuce.
For the sauce I used:
- minced meat
- chopped tomatoes
- tomato puree
- white onion
- carrot
- garlic
- balsamic vinegar
- sweetcorn
- stock
- salt, pepper, basil, oregano
Fry the meat, onion and carrots in some olive oil. Add tomatoes, tomato puree, seasoning and a dash of vinegar. Also add some water. Put the lid on and let it take care of itself for about 20-30 minutes, add water when/if needed. Meanwhile you can prepare the pasta. I also used zucchini as a replacement for most of the pasta. Just take a cheese slicer and slice the zucchini into think slices. Then take the knife and cut the slices into "spaghetti". A different and fun way to use vegetables in food :-) Serve with lettuce.
Mycket att göra nu. Massor av jobb, plugg och äter för mycket för tillfället, duh. Gjorde iaf en god middag på köttfärssås med zucchinipasta och makaroner. Skiva zucchinin med en osthyvel och skär sedan skivorna längs med så att de blir som spaghetti. Lite kul och annorlunda sätt att äta grönsaken på :-)
