Yummy Garlicky Pasta With Roasted Eggplant, Summer Squash, Zucchini And Sausage!

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 450 degrees and place vegetables on a roasting pan.

2. 2

   Sprinkle olive oil and red pepper flakes over vegetables. Add salt and pepper until the vegetables are well seasoned and place in oven for 25 minutes.

3. 3

   While vegetables are cooking, also cook the sausage links in the oven until fully cooked (it usually takes about 20 minutes). I usually choose a spicy chicken sausage. Rest sausage for about five minutes and then slice into small bite sized pieces.

4. 4

   While vegetables and sausages are roasting in the oven, prepare your favorite pasta according to the instructions on the package. I love linguine!

5. 5

   After pasta is cooked, reserve one cup of pasta water and drain the rest of the pasta. Set the pasta aside.

6. 6

   Place the 1/3 cup of minced garlic and 1/3 cup of olive oil in a sauce pan and simmer on LOW HEAT for about 2 minutes, until olive oil is slowly bubbling. DO NOT over cook the garlic because this will cause the olive oil to have a burnt taste.

7. 7

   After vegetables are fully cooked, mix the pasta, sausage, 1 cup of reserved pasta water, garlic with infused olive oil, and the 1/3 cup of raw garlic with the roasted vegetables.

8. 8

   Grate parmesan cheese over the pasta and serve!
