1. Add macaroni to a large saucepan of boiling water. Stir well to prevent sticking. Boil for 8-10 minutes or until just tender.

3. Meanwhile, heat oil in saucepan and saute onion, garlic and vegetables for 3-4 minutes.
4. Add tomatoes (plus a little water if necessary) or pasta sauce, cover and cook over gentle heat for another 3 minutes, stirring once or twice.
