  • 2medium bell peppers
  • 2medium onions
  • 2pints cherry tomatoes
  • 3mediudm summer squash or zucchini
  • 6cloves garlic
  • 1Tbsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 1/4c Pickle Creek Greek Basil & Garlic Infuse Olive Oil
  • Splash Pickle Creek Rosemary Infuse Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1lb pasta
  • salt and black pepper
  • 2-3 Tbsp Pickle Creek Greek Basil & Garlic Infuse Olive Oil
  • freshly grated Parmesan
  • 1sprig freshly chopped basil
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Chop the eggplant, squash, bell pepper, and onion into similar-sized 1-inch pieces. Halve the cherry tomatoes. Mince the garlic.
  2. Place the chopped vegetables, halved cherry tomatoes, minced garlic, and thyme leaves in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with 1/4 c Pickle Creek Infused Olive Oil and season well with salt and black pepper. If desired, sprinkle with Pickle Creek Rosemary Balsamic for a little extra punch. Toss together until vegetables are evenly coated with the olive oil.
  3. Spread the vegetable mixture onto 1 to 2 large baking sheets. You can also pile the vegetables in a thicker layer in a roasting pan or casserole dish; if you do this, however, you will need to roast the vegetables for a longer time and stir them more frequently while roasting.
  4. Roast the vegetables for 20 minutes, then stir. Roast for another 20 minutes or so until the vegetables are caramelized, very tender, and juicy. The overall roasting time will depend on how thick a layer of vegetables you are roasting.
  5. While the vegetables roast, cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain, rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process, and set aside.
  6. When the vegetables are done, toss them with the pasta and mix well. Add 1-2 Tbsp of the infused olive oil if the pasta/veggie mixture seems dry. Adjust the seasonings as needed and serve topped with fresh basil and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Enjoy!
