2 red peppers, cored and cut into 1-inch wide strips
2 zucchini, quartered lengthwise and cut into 1-inch cubes
2 summer squash, quartered lengthwise and cut into 1-inch cubes
4 cremini mushrooms, halved
1 yellow onion, peeled and sliced into 1-inch strips
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
1 tablespoon dried Italian herb mix or herbs de Provence
1 pound penne pasta
3 cups marinara sauce (store bought or homemade)
1 cup grated fontina cheese
1/2 cup grated smoked mozzarella
1 1/2 cups frozen peas, thawed
1/4 cup grated Parmesan, plus 1/3 cup for topping
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • On a baking sheet, toss the peppers, zucchini, squash, mushrooms, and onions with olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and dried herbs. Roast until tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook for about 6 minutes. Since you will be cooking the pasta a second time in the oven, you want to make sure the inside is still hard. Drain in a colander.
  • In a large bowl, toss the drained pasta with the roasted vegetables, marinara sauce, cheeses, peas, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Using a wooden spoon, gently mix, until all the pasta is coated with the sauce and the ingredients are combined.

BACON AND VEGETABLE PASTA BAKE



Bacon and Vegetable Pasta Bake image

Easy pasta bake that I often fall back on when I want dinner ready quickly. When in a rush after work I microwave the vegetables to soften but if you have time I think that the end result is better if you sauté them. Sometimes I'll add some Italian Herbs to this. But its really just a lazy dinner.

Categories     Penne

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

500 g dry penne pasta
737 g passata (I use the best quality I can)
6 slices bacon, rinds removed
150 g Baby Spinach
250 g button mushrooms, sliced
1 zucchini, trimmed and diced

1 red capsicum (bell pepper)
3 cups cheese, grated (I mix 1/2 cup parmesan and one and a bit cups of tasty and cheddar)

  • Preheat oven to 200°C (190°C fan forced). Grease a 6cm deep, 28cm x 35cm baking dish.
  • Cook pasta to packet directions in lots of salted water.
  • Meanwhile, cook bacon under grill until brown and almost crispy, chop and set aside.
  • Add zucchini, carrot and celery to a microwave safe bowl with a dash of water, cover and microwave on high for 4 - 5 minutes or until carrot is tender.
  • Drain pasta and return to the pot. Add zucchini, carrot, celery, mushrooms, capsicum, baby spinach, bacon and passata and stir to combine.

Tips:

  • Choose firm vegetables. Roasting brings out the natural sweetness of vegetables, so it's important to choose firm, flavorful varieties. Good options include broccoli, Brussels sprouts, carrots, cauliflower, eggplant, bell peppers, onions, potatoes, and zucchini.
  • Cut vegetables into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly. If you're roasting a variety of vegetables, cut them into similar-sized pieces so they all finish cooking at the same time.
  • Toss vegetables with oil and seasonings. This will help them brown and caramelize in the oven. You can use olive oil, avocado oil, or grapeseed oil. Season the vegetables with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and any other herbs or spices you like.
  • Roast vegetables at a high temperature. This will help them get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Roast vegetables at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-30 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned.
  • Add bacon for extra flavor. Bacon adds a delicious smoky flavor to roasted vegetables. Cook the bacon until it is crispy, then chop it into small pieces. Toss the bacon with the roasted vegetables before serving.
  • Serve roasted vegetables immediately. Roasted vegetables are best enjoyed hot out of the oven. Serve them as a side dish, or use them to top salads, pizzas, or pasta dishes.

Conclusion:

Roasted vegetables are a delicious and healthy way to enjoy your favorite veggies. They're easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With a little planning and effort, you can create a delicious roasted vegetable dish that everyone will love.
