What to do:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add pasta and cook. When there is about two minutes left before the pasta is done, add the zucchini (baby marrow) and mushrooms into pot and cook for the final two minutes then strain.

Preheat your grill on a high heat. Add pasta sauce to pot then add the pasta and vegetable mix into the sauce. Mix well and add a third of a cup of mozzarella cheese into pot; mix well.

Grease a large casserole dish with cooking spray, and then pour pasta mixture into baking dish. Top it off with remaining mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Sprinkle Italian seasoning over the top.

Place under the grill and cook for three to five minutes. Watch closely as it can burn quickly. Cooking time depends on oven. When the cheese is bubbly and browning, remove from oven.
