Hi Melbgal,
My Bolognese type sauce these days is way less tomatoey than it used to be pre LC.
For 2 of us, I brown about 400g or so of mince (the regular, of course - it's cheapest apart from being highest in fat ), add some chopped onion, or spring onion if I want to use fewer carbs, whichever herbs and spices I'm in the mood for, maybe some chopped bacon and then the tomato. I use only ½ a 400g can of chopped tomatoes. It didn't seem to have enough tomato at first, but now we're both used to it. I must admit here that I'm lucky with my SO - he's pretty happy with anything I plonk in front of him.
Sometimes I'll add some chopped zucchini and mushrooms, then serve as is sprinkled with grated parmesan. Other times I just serve it as "meat" with some other vegies or salad. And sometimes I make up a casserole by placing various chopped vegies into a buttered casserole dish, add my "bolognese," top with grated cheddar or mozzarella cheese then bake in a mod oven for ½ hour or so.
Hmm, think I've got off the beaten track a bit. Never mind, maybe I'll give someone an idea or two.
HTH (a little? )
