Kid-friendly chicken and vegetable pasta bake to make veggies delicious.
Ingredients:
  • 1 medium brown onion, chopped
  • 500g Chicken Mince
  • 1 medium green capsicum, finely chopped
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled, grated
  • 150g button mushrooms, grated
  • 3 celery stalks, trimmed, finely chopped
  • 800g can diced tomatoes
  • 750.00 ml dried farfalle pasta (see tip)
  • 500.00 ml grated tasty cheese
  • Chopped fresh chives, to serve
  • Salad leaves, to serve
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced and generously grease a 6cm-deep, 21cm x 35cm ceramic baking dish with a 12 cup-capacity.
  • In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, heat oil. Add onion and mince, using a wooden spoon to break up the mince while stirring for 6 to 8 minutes until browned. Add capsicum, carrot, mushroom, and celery, and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in tomato and season with salt and pepper. Simmer uncovered for 2 minutes until heated through.
  • Layer half of the pasta on the bottom of the dish. Spread half of the mince mixture on top, followed by half of the cheese. Repeat the layering process with the remaining pasta, mince mixture, and cheese.
  • Bake uncovered for 45-55 minutes until the top is golden and the pasta is tender. Let it rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with chives. Serve with a side salad.
