Veggie Bolognese

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

I know the title sounds like an oxymoron, but I came across a neat technique to pull off this dish without missing the meat.  It requires mushrooms and a food processor…the finely ground mushroom gives the illusion of meat crumble throughout the sauce.  I haven’t tested it yet but being a lover of mushrooms, I can’t imagine it being anything less than delicious.

This is my stand by Bolognese Recipe, and I’ve included some other traditional recipes to follow- just substitute the meat for finely chopped mushrooms.  Mushrooms can also be more cost effective than meat- save those extra dollars for some tasty dinner wine!
