healthy beef and lentil bolognese - Needs a stock cube and some spices, but otherwise very nice
2/10 - This tasted like water... I followed every step. I had to add extra herbs for some hope and it still tasted extremely bland. :(((
Cooking - Tasty
Will make again - Very nice gluten free sauce option
