Penne Pasta with Roasted Romanesco

Ingredients

·1 head Romanesco or cauliflower, chopped into florets
·3 cloves garlic thinly sliced
·Salt and black pepper, to taste
·2 tablespoons olive oil
·14-16 oz gluten-free penne or noodles of choice

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking dish with foil or parchment paper. Place the Romanesco and garlic in the baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, then toss well to coat. Roast for about 30 minutes, or until tender, flipping halfway through. Add more oil, if pan appears dry. Meanwhile, prepare pasta according to the package directions. Drain, reserving about 1/2 cup of the starchy pasta water. Then, return the pasta to the pot. Pour the contents of the baking dish into the pasta, including the oil. Toss well, adding the reserved pasta water, as necessary. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if needed. Serve and enjoy!

Such an amazing project which results in amazing veg to feed us throughout the week ! It has also introduced us to veg we might otherwise not have tried and love them now. And it's all local and chemical free! Cannot recommend it enough :)
