Ingredients
  • 225 g Penne pasta
  • 2 cups Broccoli florets
  • 1 cup Carrots, sliced
  • 1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved
  • 3 tbsp Olive oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp Red pepper flakes (optional)

Prepare Vegetables

Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Wash and prepare the vegetables. Cut broccoli into florets, slice carrots, and halve Brussels sprouts.

Roast Vegetables

In a large bowl, toss the vegetables with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.

Cook Pasta

While the vegetables are roasting, cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

Garlic Parmesan Sauce

In a large skillet or the same roasting pan (after removing vegetables), heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, until fragrant (be careful not to burn it). Remove from heat.

Combine and Serve

Add the cooked pasta and roasted vegetables to the skillet with the garlic oil. Toss to combine. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes (if using). Serve immediately.
