Spaghetti Bolognese

This is my go-to Bolognese. I'm not going to pretend it is anything like the real deal. But this pasta with a meaty sauce is affordable, tasty and quick for a mid-week meal.

This amount will serve four to five people. I will either use venison or beef mince depending on what is on special. I also use whole wheat pasta but feel free to use what you like. This is also nice with some mushrooms! Yummy!

Ingredients
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil (or cooking oil of your choice)
½ red onion, finely chopped (swap out for brown or white if you like)
½ red capsicum, chopped into small cubes
½ green capsicum, chopped into small cubes
1 teaspoon crushed garlic
500g minced red meat (beef or venison)
1 can of chopped tomatoes in juice
350g spaghetti or fettuccini
