Light Beef Bolognese image

A nice hearty well seasoned beef-wine sauce to serve over pasta. I generally use Merlot for the wine because that's my favorite and I can serve the rest of the bottle with dinner. Sometimes I add another vegetable if I have one on hand, such as sliced mushrooms, peas or green beans.

3 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 medium green bell pepper, diced (1/4" cubes)
