One Pot Cajun Beef Pasta with lots-of-veg
Instructions
Prep:15minCook:25min
Recipe video above. A big bubbly beefy pasta in a Cajun flavoured tomato sauce, filled with lots of hidden vegetables, all made in one pot! Love that it's a complete meal, and a great way to stretch 500g/1lb beef to serve more people with the bonus of a stack of "hidden" vegetables (carrot, zucchini ,zucchini, canned tomato and onion - yes, onion counts towards daily veg intake!).Leftovers are excellent! Fridge or freeze.
