Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 carrots (cut into 1-inch pieces)
2 Vidalia onions (or 1 small yellow onion, cut into 1-inch pieces)
5 small pattypan squash (sliced in half)
2 small zucchini (cut into 1-inch pieces)
10 cherry tomatoes
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil (more for drizzling)
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
2 garlic cloves (minced)
½ teaspoon herbes de Provence
Leaves from 8 sprigs fresh thyme (more for garnish)
1 16-ounce package brown rice penne pasta
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
½ cup fresh basil (more for garnish)
Juice of ½ small lemon (more if desired)
Pinches of red pepper flakes
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Place the carrots and onions on the first sheet and the pattypan squash, zucchini, and tomatoes on the other. Drizzle both sheets of vegetables with olive oil and generous pinches of salt and pepper. Place the sheet with the carrots and onions in the oven first and roast for 30 to 35 minutes or until the onions are tender and lightly charred, and the carrots are tender and browned. Place the second sheet in and roast for 20 minutes, or until the squash and zucchini are golden brown around the edges, and the tomatoes are lightly bursting. Remove from the oven and set aside.
  • In the bottom of a large bowl, combine the 1 tablespoon of olive oil with the sherry vinegar, garlic, herbes de Provence, thyme, ¼ teaspoon salt, and several grinds of black pepper. Stir in the roasted vegetables.
  • Prepare the pasta according to the instructions on the package, cooking until al dente. Drain and transfer the cooked pasta to the large bowl with the roasted vegetables and toss to coat.
  • Add the feta, basil, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes and gently toss. Season (generously!) to taste with more salt, pepper, and lemon juice, as desired.
  • Garnish with more fresh herbs and a generous drizzle of olive oil.

Tips:

  • Choose firm vegetables: Vegetables like broccoli, carrots, and potatoes hold their shape well during roasting and won't get mushy.
  • Cut vegetables evenly: This ensures even cooking. Aim for 1-inch pieces for most vegetables.
  • Toss vegetables with oil and seasonings: This helps them roast evenly and develop a nice caramelized exterior.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Give the vegetables enough space so they can roast properly. If the pan is too crowded, the vegetables will steam instead of roast.
  • Roast vegetables at a high temperature: This helps them caramelize and develop a crispy exterior. Aim for a temperature between 400°F and 425°F.
  • Roast vegetables until tender: The roasting time will vary depending on the type of vegetable. For most vegetables, aim for a roasting time of 20-30 minutes.
  • Make the spicy marinara sauce while the vegetables are roasting: This will save you time and ensure that the sauce is ready when the vegetables are done.
  • Add the roasted vegetables to the spicy marinara sauce: Stir to combine and heat through.
  • Serve the roasted vegetable pasta with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs: This adds a delicious finishing touch to the dish.
