Serve straight away with cheese. *If you want to make this dish for later. Leave out the pasta and water from the ingredients list and just cook for 8-10 minutes in total until the veggies are soft. Then you can cook the pasta in a separate dish. This way you can blend up the sauce for weaning or any fussy eaters. This also works so well with rice or a baked potato! Enjoy
