Veggie White Sauce Pasta
Anyone who knows me knows I LOVE food! I'm not one to turn down anything really, especially a creamy and cheesy pasta.
I was very kindly asked to collaborate with Ciao Gusto on a recipe post using their delicious Béchamel Sauce.
When I think of béchamel I instantly think pasta so it was only right that I created an easy pasta recipe!
Creamy, smooth and oh so tasty, this sauce definitely puts the magic into this Veggie Pasta!
Recipe
150g Dried Pasta (any you like)
2 Tbsp. Salt
1Tbsp. Olive Oil
3-4 Garlic Cloves, minced
1 Medium Onion, diced
1/2 cup Broccoli Florets
7 Mushrooms, halved
2 Bell Peppers, cubed
1 Carton CHEF Béchamel Sauce
1 Tsp. Pepper
1 Tsp. Italian Herbs Seasoning
1 Ball Mozzarella Cheese
Basil, to decorate (optional)
2 Tbsp. Salt
1Tbsp. Olive Oil
3-4 Garlic Cloves, minced
1 Medium Onion, diced
1/2 cup Broccoli Florets
7 Mushrooms, halved
2 Bell Peppers, cubed
1 Carton CHEF Béchamel Sauce
1 Tsp. Pepper
1 Tsp. Italian Herbs Seasoning
1 Ball Mozzarella Cheese
Basil, to decorate (optional)
Method
Prepare a large oven-proof dish and pop to one side.
Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees Centigrade.
In a large pan, fill 3/4's full with water and bring to the boil.
Add salt and dried pasta and cook according to pack instructions.
Once cooked; drain and pop to one side.
In a large frying pan heat oil; add onion and garlic and cook for a couple of minutes.
Add broccoli, peppers and mushrooms and season with pepper and Italian herbs.
Cook for 3-4 minutes, mixing occasionally.
Pour cooked pasta into the oven proof dish and pour over half of the béchamel sauce; mix.
Add cooked vegetables, a little more sauce and mix together.
Cut mozzarella into slices and place over the top.
Pour remaining béchamel sauce over.
Pop in the oven for 12-15 minutes to heat through and melt the cheese.
Decorate with basil (if you wish) and serve immediately.
