Seafood in tomato sauce

It’s worth keeping ready-to-cook mixed seafood in the freezer, as it’s ideal for quick and easy meals. I made thisSeafood in tomato saucedish with myhome-made spiced tomato sauce,but you can use any shop-bought versions too. For the mixed veggies you can use kale, peas, mushroom, leek, red pepper, green beans,  spinach and so on. Serve it with pasta, rice, couscous or just on a piece of toast.
