This is one of my new favorite weeknight dinners. It can be made in 30-Minutes, super easy, filling, and loaded with veggies.
Oven roasting vegetables is my most favorite way to cook vegetables and I LOVE pasta, so why not combine the two?
I decided to go with a sun dried tomato sauce that is easily made by blending all sauce ingredients in a food processor with garlic, olive oil, and spices. The sauce is more of a paste than a sauce really, but when stirred into the hot pasta it it gives the pasta a light coating of sauce that doesn’t overpower the flavor of the roasted vegetables.
