Tempeh Bolognese Pasta Bake

Chef notes

This recipe is a meatless twist on something my mom made growing up, and it always reminds me of busy and chaotic yet also cozy family dinners at home. It's so easy to make, comforting and packed with nutrients.

Technique tip: Make sure to cook the pasta al dente, since the dish also bakes in the oven for a few minutes; this will ensure you don't end up with mushy pasta.

Swap option: If you want to keep it vegetarian but you don't like tempeh, you could use lentils or white beans for protein.
