Inspired by her best friend, my teenage daughter decided to eat vegetarian. Which would have been easy, except for her two carnivorous brothers. So I took to developing vegetarian versions of our favorite meat dishes: they were more appealing to my sons, and on the days the boys insisted on having meat, I could cook two versions of the same dish, simply switching out the meat for a vegetable alternative while leaving the other ingredients--and flavors--the same.
<br />Bolognese sauce--or as we like to call it, Ragu'--is rich, filling, and a clear favorite in my house. I found that diced cremini mushrooms made a satisfying substitute for ground beef. That was easy! This recipe does not include onions because my family is very sensitive to FODMAPs.
<br />Scoop some pasta into a bowl, top with a generous spoonful of this sauce, garnish with a grating of parmesan, and it's pure comfort food.
