Tips:

- Prep all vegetables beforehand to streamline the cooking process. Wash, peel, and chop your broccoli, carrots, mushrooms, and sweet corn accordingly.

- Cook your pasta al dente according to the package instructions. This ensures that the pasta retains a firm texture when combined with the sauce and vegetables.

- Consider sautéing the vegetables in a small amount of olive oil for enhanced flavor before adding them to the tomato sauce.

- Season to taste with herbs like basil, oregano, or parsley to elevate the flavor of the dish. A touch of garlic or onion powder can also add depth.

- For added protein, you can include your favorite beans like chickpeas or lentils, or add a sprinkle of nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor that remains vegan-friendly.
