Back in The North

We're back home. Back in the cold. With an empty fridge. So, being the former boy scout that I am and ever prepared, we broke into the frozen food for just such emergencies. This is the spaghetti with bolognese sauce that was made a couple of weeks ago when we made lasagna. I loved that this was in the refrigerator. It froze very well and once defrosted tasted like it was made yesterday. It as built on a base of garlic, onion, carrot and celery. To that a pinch of red pepper flakes, dried herbs and salt and pepper. Then ground meat, followed by a bit of tomato paste and several jars of strained tomatoes. Dead simple, followed by time simmering on the stove.
