French Beans, Tomatoes, Soy Mince & Carrots Pasta Dish

Finally found the time to sit down and write this 🙂 (perks of studying engineering I guess!). I found soya mince at my local Tesco the other day and decided to give it a try: no regrets! Was absolutely delicious and although it tastes obviously different that beef or lamb, it is perfect as an alternative to meat based bolognese 🙂

Ingredients 

– One can (400g) of chopped tomatoes

– 2 medium carrots

– 300g of french beans

– 200g of mince (I used soy mince, but meat mince is also fine)

– 1.5 cups of wholewheat fusili pasta (or any other kind, gluten-free pasta can also be used)

 

Method

– Put some water to boil and add the pasta. Let it cook for about 5-8 min or until ready.

– Put some coconut oil in a pan.

-Dice the carrots, then add the french beans, chopped tomatoes and mince. Let it simmer for about 7 min. (Add some water if needed).

– Add the drained pasta to the pan

-Season with salt, cumin, pepper as you like. You may also add some parsley or coriander. Let it simmer for another 5-7 min. Ta daaa!!
