Process

In a large pot, or enameled cast iron dutch oven, warm the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the carrot, celery and onion to the pot and saute while stirring until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the ground beef to the pot, and cook while stirring, until the beef is browned, and has released its liquid.
Drain the liquid from the pot, and season the beef and vegetables with salt and pepper.
Add the red wine to the pot and stir to combine with the meat and veggies.
Add in the pureed tomatoes, and tomato paste, and stir to evenly combine.
Stir in the heavy cream, and add 2 bay leaves to the pot.
Allow the sauce to come to a bubble for a few minutes, and then turn down to low, and cover with a lid.
Allow the sauce to simmer for 1-2 hours.
Serve with gluten-free Tagliatelle pasta (we prefer Jovial brand), or your choice of spiralized vegetable noodles.
