Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil. Cook the fusilli in the boiling water until ‘al dente’, 12 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. Drizzle with olive oil to prevent sticking.

While the pasta is cooking, finely chop the garlic. Trim the green beans. Thinly slice the carrot into half-moons. Thinly slice the leek.

Preheat the grill to high. In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook the diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 6-7 minutes.

To the pan with the bacon, add the diced tomatoes with garlic & onion, garlic & herb seasoning, chicken-style stock powder and light cooking cream. Simmer until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. Stir through the cooked fusilli and the butter. Season to taste. Transfer to a baking dish. Sprinkle with the grated Cheddar cheese. Grill until the cheese is melted and golden, 5-7 minutes.

While the pasta bake is grilling, wipe out the frying pan and return to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook the green beans, carrot and leek until tender, 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Season to taste.
