400 gr pasta
1 small jar pasta sauce

Dice the onion, carrots and squash ( you don't need to peal it ).
In a cooking pot add some oil and add the vegetables. Stir around until they get a little softer and add the garlic as well as the tomato sauce.
Add some water and seasoning. 
Place the lid on and cook the sauce for 20 minutes or until the veggies are soft and mushy.
In a meantime cook the pasta al dente and add the broccoli into the pasta pan right in the end. Drain and set a side.
Mash the sauce with potato masher and mix it up with the pasta and broccoli.
Spoon it up into a ovenproof dish and 1/2 cup of water if it feels dry and sprinkle some cheese. 
Bake in a hot oven pre-heated on 190 C for 20 minutes.
