This recipe of simple Tricolour Pasta is completely open ended and can be experimented with your choice of veggies and sauces. Like you can also add peas or broccoli for more green colour and carrots or tomatoes to give it more orangish colour and make the recipe more healthy by adding loads of veggies. For my daughter, after preparing tri colour pasta, I have set its layers by picking pasta of same colour with small tongs as Tiranga - Orange, white and green layers but this is totally optional.
