Vegan Pasta Bolognese

I was thrilled to finally find a gluten free meat substitute to add a little variety to my cooking as far as vegetarian protein sources go. Beyond Meat (they don’t pay me) has a few tasty gluten free, vegan options to choose from. I bought the beef crumbles and was inspired to create a kind of traditional Italian Bolognese sauce that might even fool carnivores. The fennel gives it a bright and fresh sausage-y taste. This sauce came out so amazing I challenge you to try this out on anyone who eats meat and see if they can tell. It’s delicious on pasta or in baked lasagna, with or without the meat substitute. So good, vegan and gluten free!
