Roasted Veggie and Sausage Pasta
Ingredients
2 cups brussels sprouts, halved
2 cups butternut squash, cubed
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
3 Italian sausages, sliced
8 oz pasta (fusilli or penne works great)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan (optional)
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Roast the veggies: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss brussels sprouts and butternut squash with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway, until caramelized.
Cook the sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage slices until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
Boil the pasta: While the veggies roast and sausage cooks, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water.
Combine everything: In the skillet, toss the cooked pasta, roasted veggies, and sausage together. If it feels dry, add a splash of reserved pasta water. Sprinkle Parmesan and parsley on top for added flavor.
Serve and enjoy: Plate it up and savor the comforting flavors of this hearty dish!
