• Meanwhile, grate zucchini. Finely chop garlic. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook sliced mushrooms, stirring, until browned and softened, 6-8 minutes. • Add garlic, garlic & herb seasoning and zucchini and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Little cooks: Under adult supervision, older kids can help grate the zucchini.

• Reduce heat to medium and add thickened cream, vegetable stock powder and the reserved pasta water, then simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Add basil pesto, fusilli and baby spinach leaves. Stir to combine and season to taste. TIP: Add a splash more water if the sauce looks too thick. Serve the sauce on top of cooked pasta if preferred.
