Vegetable pasta dishes are really simple, healthy and quick. My kids love this and say that it is even better eaten the next day if there are leftovers.

Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat and fry all the vegetables for 8 - 10 minutes until soft, stirring occasionally.
At the same time, cook the pasta in a large pan of boiling water as per the packet instructions, then drain.
Add the vegetables to the pasta together with half the lemon juice and all the basil leaves and stir together.
Serve immediately. Add the remaining lemon juice at the table if you like and sprinkle with the parmesan cheese.
Notes
In a hurry or not all eating together?Prepare everything in advance. Cooking will only take around 10 minutes. If you need to save a portion for later, you can still cook the vegetables, set a portion to one side and re-heat when ready. Cook the pasta as you need it.[nutrition-label]
