SPAGHETTI ALLA NAPOLETANA

Preparation time: 30 mins

Serves: 4-6

An absolute classic Italian number plus it's super simple and quick. All the vegetables can be substituted for whatever you have in your fridge, we make it in double batches and freeze it for the times we are short of time or in a rush. Substitute white pasta for wholemeal pasta is a great way of increasing fibre and will keep you fuller for longer.
