I have been meaning to get this one on here for a long time and TBH I thought it was until I reposted another fabulous bolognese on my feed and realized that it hadn’t made it up yet.

INSTRUCTIONS METHOD FOR “MEAT” Crumble walnuts in food processor until pea sized. Mash tofu with fork (or hands!) until pea sized. Whisk wet and dry ingredients together and combine with walnut and tofu mix. Spread on baking sheet and bake at 350 F for 35 min, stirring at half way to ensure even baking. METHOD FOR SAUCE Sauté onions, add garlic. Add tomato paste and cook 1 min. Add tomatoes, cayenne and cook on simmer for approximately 30 minutes. Cook pasta, heat pan with 1tbsp of olive oil, add walnut meat just to heat through, add 1-2c of tomato sauce (more if you like really saucy-less if you like more meaty) to create the bolognese. I added in sautéed cremini mushrooms, fresh basil, tons of vegan parmesan, olive oil and chili flakes! You could throw in spinach, red pepper, zucchini, black olives or whatever else you desire. Buon Appetito
