Yummy Recipe - Tortellini Bolognese
I use to order this from the olive garden a few years ago but they don't have it on their menu anymore. It makes a lot!! You can freeze what you don't use. Enjoy... I've skipped the rosemary & sage, and usually add more wine then what is listed. I also like to use cream at the end to make it creamy.
Ingredients
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, finely chopped
1 celery stalk, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
? lb ground beef
6 oz Italian sausage, skinned

18 oz can crushed tomatoes, chopped (ground)
1 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped (1/4 tsp dry)

Salt to taste
