Home Cooked (Bolognese Pinwheel)

My interpretation of home would have to be the home cooked meal. Because essentially, there is nothing quite like a meal prepared with fresh ingredients, personal flair and little bit of TLC. Tonight I whipped up an old favourite that we haven't eaten in a while. Simple, quick and really, really tasty... (don't ask me why mine never turn out looking like a proper pinwheel as per picture on the Pampas puff pastry packet, oh well!).

Joining in with the second edition of Snap It, over at Faith Hope & a whole lotta Love, on the theme for today, Home.
