For Al Dente pasta, cook for about 5 minutes. If you prefer softer pasta shapes, cook for up to 10 minutes (any longer and the pasta will become sticky).<\/p>\n<p>2.)\u00a0Drain the water and allow the pasta to firm up a bit in the pot while you prepare spicy vegetables.<\/p>\n<p>3.)\u00a0Heat a frying pan over medium heat and spray with non-stick spray (or use some oil of choice). Add the peppers, onions, spices and lemon juice. Saute until the vegetables have softened and the peppers have \u201cblackened\u201d slightly around the edges \u2013 about ten minutes.<\/p>\n<p>4.)\u00a0Add the tomatoes and cook for another two minutes. Tomatoes soften quickly so be careful they don\u2019t burn and stick to the pan.<\/p>\n<p>5.)\u00a0Add the cooked pasta and cook over low heat for another 2 minutes to allow the flavours to combine and the pasta is well coated in the spice mix.<\/p>\n<p>6.)\u00a0Serve and top with the Greek yogurt, avocado and salsa (if using).<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy!<\/p>\n<h3>GET BAKING!<\/h3>\n<p>Try the recipe yourself!
