Ingredients

  • 1/3 tsp grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 tsp ground basil
  • 1/3 tsp garlic
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 7 oz mushrooms, chopped
  • 14 oz zucchini
  • 14 oz plum tomatoes, chopped
  • 5 oz dry whole wheat pasta
  • 4 1/4 oz reduced fat cheddar cheese
  • 10.5 oz vegetarian patties

Directions

  • Add pasta to pan of boiling water and boil until tender.
  • Spray frying pan with low calorie spray and sauté chopped mushrooms, zuchinni (courgettes) and diced onions stirring occasionally.
  • Add vegetarian ground mince (quorn mince) to frying pan and cook until tender.
  • 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.
  • Drain pasta, stir in sauce mixture and serve immediately. If desired, sprinkle cheddar cheese on the top before serving.
  • As an alternative version, a can of drained tuna could be added to sauce mixture instead of vegetarian ground mince. The tuna version can also be chilled and eaten cold.
  • Note: Quorn "Beef" mince in the UK is the vegetarian substitute for ground mince beef.
