Cook the pasta until "al dente" or done. But just before it is

done, add the vegetables into the saucepan.

While the pasta is cooking, place the flour, the margarine and 

the milk into another clean saucepan and stir well until smooth.

Set the sauce on a cooker and start to boil, stirring

continuously until the sauce thickens. Keep simmering until

smooth.

Add the cheese to the sauce, and stir in in.

colander. Put the pasta and veg back in the saucepan and mix in the bacon and cheese sauce.

Mix in all up then pour it into the oven proof tray, and put it in the oven for 10 minutes.

Take the tray out, take the pasta out the tray and put on a

plate, then serve.

Welcome to the blog!

Heya everyone, my name's India, Beyonce for short. I decided over the summer to put together this… snazzy blog to document the banterous Uni life of my friends and I. We'll be recording ourselves pretty much 24/7 (excluding our time on the toilet and napping and such, much to your disappointment). These videos will then be put up here along with photos of us and other little posts like this so stay tuned!
