This low and slow, simple ingredient, HUG IN A BOWL will make your whole week warm and cozy. I’m not sure there’s a more delicious pasta sauce than a bolognese. It’s full of flavor-rich ingredients, and it simmers for two hours (or three, if you want), allowing those flavors to deepen and intensify even more.
Toss this goodness with some zoodles or spaghetti squash (or regular noodles if you aren’t doing Whole 30!), and you’ve got a bowl of happy sitting on your dinner table. It tastes good to eat, and it feels good to eat, that’s my favorite part about Whole 30 food.
Let’s talk ricotta. This is a vegan ricotta – it’s Whole 30 friendly, and even off Whole 30, I make it because my son has a dairy allergy. So – does it taste exactly like ricotta? No. Plant based substitutes hardly ever taste exactly like the thing they’re mimicking.
HOWEVER – is it a creamy, savory element that has a similar taste and feel to ricotta and also (most importantly) just tastes SUPER good? YESSSSS. It is that. My husband and I honestly both like it more than ricotta itself. But also, real ricotta isn’t our favorite thing ever in the first place, so that could be why.
If you’re on the fence, just try it. It’s very very easy to make, it tastes GREAT, and it adds a lovely little rich, creamy element to this dish that you are usually missing while eating dairy free.
