Preheat the oven to 200C.

Cook the pasta in line with the packet directions.

Meanwhile, gently fry the onion and garlic in a large pan. Add and stir in all the other tomato sauce ingredients. Then add the other vegetables and leave the pan to simmer for about 10-15 minutes.

Meanwhile, make a roux (warm the oil in a clean pan over a low heat, mix the flour in thoroughly to make a paste). Stir in the plant milk, a little at a time. Add the mustard, garlic and nutritional yeast and stir in thoroughly.

Use a large ovenproof dish. Add the pasta, and then stir in the tomato sauce and vegetables. Spoon the cheesy sauce as a topping. Bake for 30 minutes.
