3. Bring a pan of water to the boil and cook your pasta to al dente.
4. To the pan with the veggies and turkey in, stir in the tomato passata, oregano and black pepper. Drain and rinse the lentils and add them to the pan. Let simmer for 5–7 minutes.
5. Add the drained pasta and mix everything up before adding to an oven proof baking dish.
