• 140 g dry whole wheat pasta
• 400 g plum tomatoes, chopped
• 200 g mushrooms, chopped
• 400 g zucchini
• 1 medium onion, diced

• 0.17 tbsp parmesan cheese
• 1/3 tsp, ground basil

Directions

1. Add pasta to pan of boiling water and boil until tender.
2. Spray frying pan with low calorie spray and sauté chopped mushrooms, zuchinni (courgettes) and diced onions stirring occasionally.
3. Add vegetarian ground mince (quorn mince) to frying pan and cook until tender.
4. Add chopped plum tomatoes to frying pan and season with pesto mix (basil, garlic and parmesan cheese). Alternatively add basil and garlic if desired. Heat sauce mixture through.
5. Drain pasta, stir in sauce mixture and serve immediately. If desired, sprinkle cheddar cheese on the top before serving.
