I don’t have a full kitchen right now so boiled water and added 1 drinking glass of pasta for a few mins then added a few handfuls of veggies from a stir fry kit (I used the left overs from the beans and rice posted before), once all bright in color I strained it out (reserving a bit of water). The pasta was still a little firm on purpose. I put it back in the pot and added some tomato sauce (reserved a bit less than half from the rice and beans), Italian seasoning mix, salt, pepper, and some pasta water. I cooked it a bit to combine.
