We have students staying with us tomorrow night and I was going to do a spag bol (for 8 - four students and us). I've just looked in the freezer and some bugger (that would be my DH) has used half the kg bag of mince I had. I have such a busy day tomorrow and could do without having to factor in a shop visit (as well as the money, we've got hardly any until DH is paid on Thurs).

I have a 400g packet of turkey mince. Would a spag bol made from both taste odd? If it was just my lot, I'd have no qualms in giving them one of my odd concoctions! lol

I make bolognese with Turkey mince all the time, I usually add some fried pancetta cubes to help add flavour and a bitof wine. The only bolognese I have made and not liked was an authentic " ragu" with beef, pork and minced chicken livers ( boak).

I always use half and half, beef and turkey. I think it tastes better actually. I would not hesitate. Turkey is not awful (at least it isn't here in France)
