-
1
Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
-
2
Prepare veggies (except garlic) by cutting into 1-inch cubes.
-
3
Place on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle salt, pepper and Italian herbs and toss to coat all veggies.
-
4
Roast vegetables until tender (about 15 minutes).
-
5
Remove from oven, add minced garlic clove and toss veggies.
-
6
Set aside.
-
7
Reduce oven heat to 375 degrees once veggies are done.
-
8
While veggies roast, cook the Italian sausage in a skillet.
-
9
I brown the links on all sides, remove them and slice them into bite-size pieces and then put them back into the skillet to finish cooking.
-
10
It shortens the cook time a bit.
-
11
Also while veggies roast, boil pasta in a large pot of salted water for about 8 minutes, until almost done.
-
12
Dont fully cook the pasta because it will finish while the dish is baking later, and you dont want soggy, mushy pasta.
-
13
Drain pasta and return to the large pot.
-
14
Add sausage, roasted veggies, marinara sauce, 1/4 cup of the Parmesan cheese and 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese.
-
15
Gently mix until everything is combined.
-
16
Taste and adjust seasonings, if needed.
-
17
Pour mixture into a baking dish (9x13).
-
18
Top with the rest of the cheeses.
-
19
Bake for 20 minutes until cheese is melted and pasta is warmed through.
