Yum! What’s not to love about this Creamy Vegetable Pasta Bake – delicious vegetables in a creamy tomato sauce topped with melted cheese goodness. 

Slimming Eats Creamy Vegetable Pasta Bake - gluten free, vegetarian, Slimming World and Weight Watchers friendly

My family love pasta bakes. So it is a dish I create often, varying it up pretty much every time. It’s an easy way to hide some vegetable for the kids.

One of our family favourite combinations is This Creamy Vegetable Pasta Bake. It’s really delicious and the kids love the mixed colours of the tricoloured bows I use. 

Any pasta will work fine in this dish, so use whatever you have on hand. But the tricoloured bows look really pretty in this pasta bake.

Vegetables such as zucchini and mushrooms in a creamy sauce with peas and sweetcorn topped with fresh tomatoes and melted mozzarella and fresh basil. Delicious!!

It is such a versatile recipe, that you can switch up the vegetable each time you make it.

Creamy Vegetable Pasta Bake

Creamy Vegetable Pasta Bake

Yield: SERVES 4
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 40 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes

Yum! What's not to love about this Creamy Vegetable Pasta Bake - delicious vegetables in a creamy tomato sauce topped with melted cheese goodness. 

Ingredients

  • 250g (9oz) of uncooked pasta (can use gluten free pasta) - I used tri-coloured pasta bows.
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 small courgette (zucchini), chopped
  • 100g of mushrooms, chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic crushed
  • 1 cup (240ml) of passata
  • 1 cup (240ml) of chicken or vegetable stock
  • 2 teaspoons of brown sugar (2 syns)
  • splash of balsamic vinegar
  • chilli flakes (optional if you like a bit of heat)
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) of sweetcorn
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) of peas
  • couple of fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon of mixed Italian herbs
  • 8 Laughing Cow Light Cheese Triangles (2 HEa)
  • 1 medium sized ripe tomato, sliced
  • 100g (3.5oz) of mozzarella cheese (2 HEa)
  • Olive oil spray
  • Salt and Pepper to season

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200c or 400f (gas mark 6)
  2. Spray a frying pan with olive oil spray, add the onion, garlic, mushrooms and courgette and cook until softened over a medium heat.
  3. Add the passata, chicken stock, basil, balsamic vinegar, sugar and sprinkling of chilli flakes. Bring to the boil and then simmer for approx 10 mins. Add a little more water if needed, if the sauce reduces too much.
  4. Add the laughing cow to a bowl and add to in a few spoonfuls of the sauce. Whisk until smooth. Pour this back into the sauce and stir until it is all mixed in. Season with some salt and pepper as needed.
  5. In the meantime, add your pasta to a saucepan of hot water and cook till Al Dente (avoid overcooking, you want the pasta to still have a bite to it).
  6. Add the pasta to the sauce, along with the peas and sweetcorn and mix all ingredients together
  7. Transfer pasta mix to a ovenproof dish.
  8. Top with the slices of tomatoes and the mozzarella cheese.
  9. Bake in the oven till cheese has melted and is golden. Approx 20-30 mins
  10. Serve with a side salad.
