Zoodle Panzanella Recipes

ZOODLE BOLOGNESE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil on medium-high heat. Add the carrots and onions and cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the beef and sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon so there are no big pieces, and cook until no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute. Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Deglaze with the wine and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, basil, oregano and crushed red pepper, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the half-and-half and Parmesan, reduce the heat to low, cover and cook for 3 minutes.
• Add the zoodles to a serving dish and top with the sauce. Serve immediately in pasta bowls and garnish with more Parmesan and basil.
