I use Quorn mince, add a beef Oxo cube (1 Syn) add a tin of chopped tomatoes with herbs and garlic. The tomatoes are essential with Quorn as Quorn is dry so it soaks up the tomato juice. Add anything else you want with it, mushrooms etc. Just cook it all up in a frying pan and serve up on a bed of spaghetti

rainbows holiday buddy :)
i 'fry' garlic, finely chopped onion in a little water and frylight and add sliced mushrooms a few minutes later.
once the onion has softened add a carton of passata, a tin of tomatoes and a generous squirt of tomato puree. heat through and add the quorn.
here comes the experimental part - i then add a little salt, pepper, paprika, chilli powder, a spoonful of marmite and some sweetener (to take the acidity away from the tomatoes) to taste.
simmer for a a while then add torn fresh basil leaves about 5 minutes before serving.

This is a version from one of the magazines and I love it! I'll have to type it up properly later but that's the gist of it!

I always use quorn chicken peices instead of the mince. I know spag bol is beef mince but the chicken absorbs the tomato so nicely. I always use sweetcorn. Mmm. I wanted this tonight but we ran out of spaghetti!

Tonight's tea has been:
chopped onion, leek, green pepper - all 'dry fried' one jar of passata with one oxo cube - added in mixed herbs, garlic powder and a generous amount of chilli powder - then added the quorn mince and simmer for a while - had to add a little bit of water as the quorn soaked up the juice. Cooked pasta twists and mixed the two together - served with a sprinkle of parmesan. we have enough left over for lunch tomorrow as well, hurrah!

flipflop
Just follow the plan
I prefer to use passata most of the time, especially for sauces. I notice its just gone up from 29p to 44p in Tesco! I was outraged, so got a load of cartons of it in Morrisons for 28p each.
I used to get the 3kg bags of pasta in Tesco for £1, then they went up and up and now they are £3 something. Scandalous! lol
