Miss G. is a huge fan of vegemite so when flicking through Nigella Lawson's Kitchen cookbook I knew we had to conjure up this concoction of hers. Vegemite and cheese wholemeal spaghetti. Only requiring 4 ingredients and taking no more than 10 minutes to prepare this simple lunch or supper is superb. Its savoury, wholesome and completely scrumptious. If you're a fan of vegemite you are ...
