You could also add this to your regular minced meat bolognese in place of canned tomatoes. Use half the quantity of sauce to 500g minced meat. You can make the sauce in bulk and freeze it.

Vegetable bolognese (vegan)
This is a delicious vegetarian and vegan alternative to the classic meat bolognese.
Method
Heat the oil in a large pan, add the onion and garlic and fry for a few minutes to soften but not colour. Add the carrots and cook for 5 minutes, then add the pepper and cook for a further 2 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and creamed tomatoes and bring to the boil. Add the broccoli and basil leaves and simmer for 5 minutes or until all the vegetables are tender.
Whizz the vegetables in a food processor, in batches, until very finely chopped. Return the sauce to a saucepan to warm through.
Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of water to the boil and cook the spaghetti according to packet instructions. Drain and toss through the sauce to serve.
