A good old fashioned meat sauce is one of the most versatile dishes you can make. It is the base of so many great Banting options, e.g. Zoodle Bolognese, Moussaka, Cottage Pie … its great for breakfast with baked eggs or cheese and tomato. I mean you could make so many meals with this! It also freezes and reheats beautifully for quick weekday dinners.
