Bolognese

Products Used

Ingredients

In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and bell pepper. Sauté until onion is translucent, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.
Add beef and Italian sausage to pan and cook, breaking into small pieces, until no longer pink, about 7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Add tomato paste, salt, pepper, oregano, basil, and thyme. Cook for 1 minute, stirring until well combined.
Add diced tomatoes, crushed tomatoes, mushrooms, beef broth, red wine, and sugar. Stir until combined and add bay leaves.
Bring sauce to a boil, and then reduce to low and simmer for at least 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Allow sauce to thicken. The longer you simmer, the thicker it will become. Cook sauce until it reaches desired consistency.
Serve over pasta, or as desired. You can also freeze this bolognese for up to 3 months.
