Beef Ragu

I have officially had my first Pinterest fail.

I thought I would give a beef ragu a try. It is a dish I recall my grandmother making often and I remember enjoying it.

My inspiration came from Ragu Gluten Free with Veal, Beef, Chicken or Turkey. The fact that it was already gluten free made me very happy and thrilled to try this dish.

As it was cooking I tried the sauce and was immediately turned off. It reminded me of vomit. Sorry but it did. I had my husband try it, my son try it and even my oldest daughter try it. Each had a different flavour that they tasted.

I was really tempted to NOT finish and find something else quick to eat. My husband encouraged me to finish out the recipe and see what would happen. Sadly, even after I mixed in the starchy water and then the noodles and everything, it still left me turned off.

My husband ate it, my daughter ate it and my son ate it. My daughter complained the entire time and my son ate off his father's plate claiming it was better than his. After all was said and done and my husband had his second plate, he announced that he added sugar to it. Ummm ok....

Will I make this dish again, not a chance!
