“This was ... not good. I really wanted a nice bolognese but didn't want to take the time cooking on the stove top. I should have realized that there are no short cuts to doing this right. Way too soupy and, as others have noted, very bland. My recommendati” — a cook, 2★
“I’ve made this at least 5 times and it’s foolproof and so delicious! Also very easy. I sauté the prepared bolognese with some heavy cream and Parmesan cheese to make it creamier and it’s amazing!!” — a cook, 5★
