Healthy Lunchbox Using winter vegetables in different ways encourages children to try new things and gives them the much needed vitamins and minerals to fight winter germs. This recipe can be modified to suit special diets by substituting gluten free, dairy free and vegetarian products. Its easy to freeze and good for leftovers in lunch boxes. Vegetable pasta bake

Ingredients 1 tsp olive oil Olive Oil spray 1 red onion, diced 3 gloves garlic, crushed 2 zucchinis, chopped 1 cup mushrooms, chopped 1 red capsicum, deseeded and chopped 1 yellow capsicum, deseeded and chopped 500g jar tomato-based pasta sauce 1 tsp dried Italian herbs 50g wholemeal breadcrumbs 50g mozzarella, grated

Method Preheat oven to 200

0C. Spray a 30 x 25cm baking dish with

oil. Cook pasta to the directions on pack. Drain and place in the baking dish, tossing in a little olive oil to stop it sticking together.

Heat a large non-stick frypan over medium-high heat. Spray with olive oil and cook the onion, garlic, vegetables and herbs until soft.

Add the pasta sauce, stir and cook for 2 minutes. Pour over the pasts and gently mix through. Add a touch of water if the mix needs to be loosened.

Top with wholemeal breadcrumbs and sprinkle with mozzarella . Bake 15 - 20 minutes until cooked through and golden on top.

You can also experiment with a variety of vegetables and meat combinations to change the flavour. Even consider using a creamy white sauce instead of the tomato sauce to make it totally different. Change up the herbs and add sesame seeds or pinenuts for added flavour and variety. Regards

Louise, Debbie, Melissa and staff
