Roasted Veggie Pasta

A fresh and delicious Roasted Veggie Pasta recipe ready in just 15 minutes! Can be eaten hot or cold, perfect for a quick and easy dinner at home or to take out and about for a picnic!

Roasted Veggie Pasta Recipe

If you have a selection of veggies in your fridge looking a little sad and past their best then this is the perfect recipe to use them all up with no waste. Simply chop, mix with some dried herbs, drizzle with olive oil and roast for 10 minutes. So easy! And a great way to pack in lots of bright color into a meal!

What Seasonings Can I Use?

I used some simple dried oregano to flavour my veggies but you can really use whatever you fancy. Some smoked paprika would give them a lovely smokey flavour or add some chilli powder for heat. Garlic granules or even Italian seasoning would also be delicious.

Why We Love Pasta!

Pasta is one of our favorite things as it’s so versatile and can be used to make so many different types of recipes.

So if you are looking for a delicious pasta recipe, then you will definitely want to go and take a look at our Pasta Recipe Collection.

We have loads of One Pot Pasta Recipes, Hidden Veggie Pasta Recipes and even Slow Cooker Pasta Recipes, so you are bound to find some great ideas for your next family dinner!

What Type of Pasta Is Best?

I’ve chosen regular penne pasta in this pasta dish, but any type of pasta you have will work. If you wanted to make the dish even healthier, then you could opt for a whole wheat pasta or even try a chickpea pasta!

Just cook your chosen pasta in a large pot of salted water according to the package instructions and you can’t go wrong!

What Roasted Vegetables Should I Use?

The veggies I used in this recipe were:

  • red onion
  • red peppers
  • yellow peppers
  • courgette
  • cherry tomatoes
  • baby broccoli
  • asparagus

But any vegetables that roast quickly will work just fine. I would avoid root vegetables like butternut squash or sweet potatoes unless you have time to cook them for longer.

If you want to add some protein, any cooked meat or prawns would work well. Or just add some drained tinned beans for an absolutely perfect vegetarian dinner.

How To Serve My Easy Roasted Vegetable Pasta

This recipe is great served either hot or cold.

If you’re serving this recipe hot, then harnish with a little bit of fresh basil or a sprinkling of grated parmesan cheese. You could even add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the grown ups portions for a bit of extra spiciness!

To make a cold pasta salad, run the cooked pasta under cold water after draining and then allow the roasted veggies to cool before mixing them with the pasta. Pack this up into an airtight container and take to work, school or even a picnic!
