Cheese-topped Pasta Bolognese
Another quick and easy meal for when you don't have much time. We have a lot of these, don't we?!
4 handfuls of pasta of your choice (cheapest is usually penne)
small pack of lean mince beef
a small onion, chopped
box of passata
teaspoon of oregano
half teaspoon basil
sprinkle of parsley
tablespoon of gravy granules
1. Fry the mince in a little bit of oil with the gravy granules (or a beef stock cube) and the onion.
2. Once the mince is brown, add the passata and the herbs and mix gently together.
3. Leave to simmer for 15-20 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a pan of boiling water.
5. Once the pasta is cooked, drain and mix with the sauce mixture.
6. Place into a large oven proof dish, top with grated cheese and put under the grill for five minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
7. Serve with garlic bread.
Cost: Approximately £5 per family assuming you have the dried version of the herbs in your store cupboard. If you need to buy these, I would suggest budgeting around £1 each for them.
