Very much enjoyed this, Kate! Lots of flavour, colour appeal with bright and tasty vegetables, I did use canned tomatoes for this, and I used tri-colour penne pasta. This made an excellent mid-week dinner, I cooked some chicken breast fillets to make this with, but that takes very little time, I used the time to do my vegetable preparation.<br/>Thanks for sharing a lovely recipe, Kate!
