Rigatoni Bolognese

[featured-images]

Once again a pasta dish, Rigatoni Bolognese, is simpler to make thanks to my stored Tomato Pasta Sauce which is infused with ingredients like garlic, oregano and basil.
The chorizo adds a depth of flavor that although may not be true Bolognese yet is quite flavorful and at the same time within ‘Mediterranean’ limits and origins. Lots of Pecorino Romano cheese both in the sauce as well as on top is a must!

My stored Tomato Pasta Sauce proved once gain very handy.
