• Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Boil
the kettle.
• Trim green beans.
• Finely chop celery, onion (see ingredients) and
garlic. Pick thyme leaves.
• Cut ciabatta in half lengthways. Push plant
based basil pesto into ciabatta with the back of
a spoon and wrap in foil.
• Place ciabatta directly on wire rack in oven and
bake until heated through, 5 minutes.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil
over medium-high heat. Cook green beans,
tossing regularly, until tender, 4-5 minutes.
Transfer to a medium bowl.

• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a
drizzle of olive oil. Cook diced bacon, celery
and onion, until tender, 4-5 minutes.
• Add beef mince, breaking up with a spoon, until
just browned, 3-4 minutes.

• Pour boiling water into a large saucepan over
high heat with a pinch of salt.
• Add fresh fettuccine to the boiling water and
cook until ‘al dente’, 3 minutes. Reserve some
pasta water (see ingredients). Drain and return
to the saucepan.
TIP: ‘Al dente’ pasta is cooked through but still
slightly firm in the centre.

• Reduce frying pan to medium heat, then add
tomato paste, thyme, garlic and herb &
mushroom seasoning and cook until fragrant,
1-2 minutes.
• Add tomato paste, chicken-style stock powder
and the reserved pasta water and cook,
stirring, until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes.

• Remove frying pan from heat, then add cooked
fettuccine and toss to coat. Season to taste with
salt and pepper.
• To the bowl with green beans, add mixed salad
leaves and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. Toss to
combine and season to taste.

• Divide beef and bacon fresh fettuccine
bolognese between bowls. Sprinkle with grated
Parmesan cheese.
• Serve with green bean salad and ‘pesto’
ciabatta. Enjoy!
