Instructions
- Chop eggplant and zucchini. Drizzle in olive oil before sprinkling with thyme and Italian spice mix. Roast at 200 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes or until cooked.

- Once vegetables are roasted, add roughly chopped kale and allow to cook for a further 3 minutes.
- Once veggies and pasta are cooked, mix together in a large baking dish. Add passata, basil and tomatoes. (Can also add more herbs or chilli flakes if you like).
