Pre-heat your oven to gas mark 5/190c.
Heat up a frying pan over a medium heat and add the oil. Fry the onions until they start to soften, then add the mince and garlic, and cook for around 5 minutes until you get a light-brown on the mince (if your brand of mince doesn't brown, it's fine, just stop after 5 minutes and carry on to the next step).
8 cloves garlic, 500 g vegan mince, 1 large onion, 1 teaspoon oil
In a large mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients, except for the cheese, and give it a good stir until it's well mixed.
3 cups chopped tomatoes, 3 cups water, 2 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 2 teaspoon vegan Worcestershire sauce, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon ground black pepper, 2 red peppers, 3 cups macaroni, 1 teaspoon sugar
Now, pour the contents of your mixing bowl into a large roasting pan or casserole dish (lightly grease with some oil if it's not non-stick), place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
After the 30 minutes is up, take it out of the oven and sprinkle the cheese on top, then return to the oven for another 5 minutes or so, until the cheese has melted.
200 g vegan cheese
Sorted - one cheeseburger pasta bake - chuck a few sliced gherkins on top for garnish if that's your thing.
