Put oil in saucepan, add sliced mushrooms and fry mushrooms, add crushed garlic clove, stir, add chopped tomatoes, (add peppers here if required)stir it all around add bay leaf, salt & pepper and herbs.
Stir until well mixed.
Put lid on saucepan. Put on low heat. Cook for 15 minutes, or until tomatoes are reduced-your choice, but be sure to keep stirring throughout so not to burn tomatoes.
Whilst cooking cook pasta I use Quick cook pasta.

Once pasta is cooked and drained put the sauce into pasta saucepan (should not be on heat now) and give it a good stir and serve straight away.  

I usually add with it some grilled chicken breast (2 1/2 points) chopped up and serve with salad. It's good for lunches when cold!
