Bolognese refers to a thick, robust tomato sauce enhanced with red wine. This one begins with a bottled pasta sauce. Ingredients:
2 teaspoons olive oil |
2 cups shredded carrot |
2 cups chopped onion |
1 cup chopped celery |
1 cup chopped red bell pepper |
1 cup chopped green bell pepper |
1 3/4 cups chopped portobello mushroom caps (about 1 large mushroom) |
2 teaspoons dried oregano |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1 cup dry red wine |
1 (26-ounce) bottle fat-free marinara sauce |
6 cups hot cooked ziti (about 3 cups uncooked short tubular pasta) |
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add carrot, onion, celery, and peppers; sauté 10 minutes. Add mushroom, oregano, and garlic, and sauté 2 minutes. Add wine and marinara sauce; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes. Serve over ziti, and sprinkle with cheese. |
