You could also add in the cooked pasta when you put in the Tuna but I found the pasta went to mushy and is nicer added in at the end by hand.

    Yummy!

    I grated the cheese in the bowl before I started on the garlic and onion, I added EVOO to the bowl before I sauteed the garlic and onion, too.
    At the vegetable stage, I added 1 chopped carrot and equal quantities of peas and carrots to make up the 500g. I reduced the speed to 3 at the final step cos 4 is too noisy for us lol.
