Chef Mogan Anthony substitutes plant-based Impossible meat for the beef traditionally used in a classic Bolognese sauce. The result is a meaty-tasting pasta that fits into a vegan diet. A tubular pasta such as rigatoni, ziti or penne works best with this heartier sauce.

Ingredients

10 oz. tubular pasta, cooked and kept warm

2 tbsp. olive oil

1 lb. plant-based ground meat

2 tbsp. thinly sliced garlic

2 tbsp. thinly sliced shallots

2 tbsp. chopped parsley

1 tsp. sambal or Calabria chili paste

4 basil leaves, slivered

6 oz. marinara sauce

Dash lemon juice

Salt and pepper, to taste

Steps

  1. In large saute pan over medium heat, heat oil. Add plant-based meat; increase heat to medium-high. Cook 2 minutes.

  2. Stir garlic, shallots, parsley and sambal into meat; cook 1 minute. Stir in marinara sauce; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low; simmer sauce 5 minutes longer.

  3. Stir cooked pasta into sauce. Finish with a squeeze of lemon and salt and pepper to taste.
