  • We all cook various pasta dishes — spaghetti, or as it's called in Italy, pasta. They're tasty on their own, of course, but you'll agree that pasta Bolognese with ground meat is much more aromatic and interesting. I'd suggest you note this simple recipe and make it some Sunday morning in a quiet, relaxed setting, without rush or fuss. Soak up the atmosphere of Italy with this wonderful dish, which I'm sure will become one of your favorites. I used to order this pasta at a restaurant that specializes in Italian food. Now I make it myself at home, which I'm very proud of! You can make it for lunch or dinner for the whole family and for unexpected guests.
