Pasta with Tomato Cream Sauce and Roasted Vegetables

Pasta with Tomato Cream Sauce and Roasted Vegetables

It's been a while isn't it,well every time I blog I hope it isn't a one-time thing and plan to continue with it at least once in a week but life has other plans.I've decided to take it as it is and post as and when when time permits :)

We love having Pasta for dinner at least once in a week.I make it the same way every time,with lots of vegetables,white sauce and very less cheese.So when we were dining out once and I saw Pasta with tomato and cream sauce in a restaurant,I was anxious to try it and see how it tasted.I love having a blob of marinara sauce on my plate when I have pasta anyway,so I was sure I'd like it.

I wasn't wrong,the pasta was delicious.I wanted to try it at home and decided to go by my taste buds while adding the ingredients.To give it a healthy twist,I added some roasted vegetables as well.Paired with a cheesy garlic bread,this was a meal I was very eager to serve and eat :)

Method

Preheat oven to 200C.

In a baking tray mix together onion,garlic and the mixed vegetables.Add salt,pepper and Italian seasoning with Olive oil.Roast the vegetables for 20-25 minutes.

In a pan add butter and marinara sauce.

Mix well and add cream.Add enough water to make thin it down(I used about a cup).Add salt to taste.

Mix in the cooked pasta,

roasted vegetables and cheese.

For the garlic bread - smear the garlic butter on each bread slice,top with grated cheese and bake for 5-7 minutes.
