Tagliatelle with vegetable ragù is a comforting vegetarian dish that will help you get more vegetables into your diet!

This pasta dish is packed full of vegetables; carrots, onion, celery, courgettes, peppers and mushrooms. Lentils are high in protein, nutrient-rich and they release energy slowly helping you to sustain energy levels. This can make you feel fuller for longer which may aid in weight loss.

The ragu freezes really well. The best way to store it is to divide the sauce into portion sizes and freeze them individually in freezer bags. Making sure to get rid of any excess air, seal and label with the cooking date for up to 3 months!

You can also use other pasta such as fettuccine, spaghetti or linguine.
