This spaghetti bolognese recipe is a traditional dinner that makes the perfect Sunday dinner. I like to use fresh vegetables like carrots, celery, onion, and garlic to take the sauce to the next level. You can make this recipe in less than an hour but I like to let the sauce simmer for at least one hour in order to let all the flavors to come together. Traditional spaghetti bolognese is a recipe that everyone will love!
