Ingredients*:

Half of a green sweet pepper, cut into chunks
1 cup of brocolli, cut into florets
1 onion, chopped chunky
knob of butter for cooking
3 cups of pasta, I used the pasta that was left over in bags from previous recipes
1/2 cup left-over cheese, grated
*any left over veg can be used, this will make this different every time you make it.
Half a jar of pasta bake sauce or any pasta sauce can be used.

7. When the pasta is cooked drain it and place to one side.
