Meat-free Spaghetti Bolognaise with Quorn

When I make my spaghetti sauce I prefer not to use mince but Mr R really likes it with mince and occasionally I give in and make it his way.  I like to cut my vegetables really small so it feels a little like mince in your mouth.

I hadn't considered using a meat-free mince so when Quorn asked me to try Quorn in my bolognaise sauce I rose to the challenge.

Quorn is high in healthy protein and low in saturated fat. It is also not only meat free but gluten free and a great source of fibre.

The mince comes frozen but doesn't need more than a few minutes to defrost and you don't need to brown it first either.  I do like that just browned look so I did brown mine for a few minutes then added it to the sauce.

I made my usual sauce; onion, celery, pepper, garlic, tomato puree, pesto, tins of tomatoes.

When the sauce was ready I added seasoning then the Quorn.

I let it simmer for about 20 minutes whilst I boiled the water for the pasta and cooked it.

Served with parmesean cheese on top and yummmmm!

Neither Mr R nor FIL (father-in-law) guessed it was meat-free. There was loads left over so you can guess what we had for lunch the following day!

I received a voucher to purchase the Quorn. I was not paid to write this review. All opinions and photos are my own.
