300 g diced bacon
3 spring onions, finely sliced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 green apple, diced
1 large red capsicum, diced
810 g or 2, 425 g cans crushed or chopped tomatoes
3 sticks celery, thinly sliced
2 large zucchini, grated
½ cup red or white wine
1 tablespoon brown sugar
3 tablespoons tomato paste
Fresh herbs or cracked pepper to taste
500 g packet any pasta e.g. spirals, penne, spaghetti

Method:

Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok.
Cook bacon bits, spring onions and garlic until onions soften.
Add remaining ingredients except pasta.
Season to taste with herbs or pepper.
Reduce heat and simmer until vegetables and apple are tender.
While the sauce is simmering, boil a large pot of water and cook pasta following instructions on the pack or until al dente. Drain well.
Spoon pasta into bowls.
Top with a generous quantity of pasta sauce. Sprinkle with cheese of choice.

Tips:

Great to eat with warm bread rolls and a green salad.
Leftover sauce can be tossed through the pasta and kept for a quick snack for hungry kids. Reheat in the microwave.
Make a double quantity of sauce and keep extra in the freezer for a fast meal.
