Spaghetti Bolognese – Syn Free on Slimming World Extra Easy

I made up this Slimming World Spaghetti Bolognese actually due a slight disaster in the kitchen where I was originally making burgers but they fell apart oops 

so I thought OK what can I make from the mince and onions that I had already fried off which now looked nothing like burgers. So I grabbed some tinned tomatoes, passata, herbs, peppers, mushrooms, garlic and some tomato puree which is stuff I always have in the cupboard and thought I would make up a Slimming World Spag Bol recipe from what I had available.

As I made it up I was tasting it to make sure it tasted as close to a jar bolognese as I could get it. If you like more garlic then of course use more but if you follow this recipe you will end up with a really tasty bolognese which will easily feed six people. You could also freeze it into portions if you wish so there is no need for any waste
