Zucchini Noodle Spaghetti Bolognese





Prep Time: 15 mins


Cook Time: 45 mins


Total Time: 1 hr




Servings: 4 servings


Zucchini noodle spaghetti bolognese is reminiscent of a good Italian beef ragu, but it’s gluten-free and grain-free thanks to zucchini noodles.



Ingredients





  • 1 lb ground beef


  • 4 large zucchini


  • 10 beefstake tomatoes, (or 12-13 roma tomatoes)


  • 1/2 onion, diced


  • 3 cloves garlic, minced


  • 1 tbsp olive oil


  • 1/2 tbsp dried oregano


  • 2 tbsp tomato paste


  • 1 1/2 tbsp fresh basil, finely chopped


  • 1/4 tsp sea salt


  • pepper, to taste


  • parmigiano reggiano, grated for topping (optional)


  • basil leaves, for garnish





Instructions



  • Slice the tomatoes in half, remove the core and quarter. Place in a food processor and pulse a few times, until finely diced and almost pureed.

  • Heat the olive oil in a pot on medium heat and cook the onions for 2-3 minutes or until slightly translucent. Add the garlic and cook an additional minute. Add the tomatoes and oregano, stir and simmer uncovered for 20-30 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and much of the liquid has evaporated.

  • While the sauce is cooking, spiralize the zucchini with either a spiralizer or julienne peeler and set aside.

  • Add the ground beef to a saute pan and cook on medium-high heat. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to break the ground beef up into small pieces as it cooks. The beef is done when it's browned and cooked through.

  • After the sauce has reduced, stir in the tomato paste, fresh basil and salt and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, then add to the cooked ground beef and stir to combine.

  • Add a serving of zucchini noodles to a plate and top with bolognese sauce and grated parmigiano reggiano. Garnish with additional basil.
