    I'm actually eating some some right now with a healthy Bolognese sauce! I love it, two zucchinis creates a generous bowl of 'pasta' but for only 60 calories.

    My pasta sauce is:
    Brown onion (1)
    A few celery sticks
    Grated carrots (3) and zucchini (1)
    Grated Apple (1)
    Fresh garlic

    Brown/soften the above in a saucepan. Remove. Brown about 500g lean mince.
    Add previous vegies to saucepan. Add about 300g finely chopped mushrooms, about 8 chopped fresh big tomatoes, whatever italian herbs you'd like and simmer for a few hours. It makes about 8 serves.

    It's amazing. Rich and fulling, tastes like a chest meal but totally isn't.

    I added some zucchini ribbons to the spaghetti tonight. Trying to boost the nutritional profile. The kids knew it was there, but begrudgingly ate it anyway. :)
