Delicious sweet roasted vegetables over pasta with some crumbled feta cheese - simple ingredients but amazing flavour
Spaghetti with Roasted Vegetables
This was a dish I used to have regularly when I was at university. We would make a big tray of roasted veg, cook up some pasta and serve it in the middle of the table with a nice bottle of wine while we all dug in.
I still enjoy it now and my kids love it too. I think it is the sweetness of those yummy roasted caramelized vegetables.
Such beautiful colours too of all the healthy vegetables
Best Vegetables for Roasting
You can pretty much roast any kind of vegetables you like, so if there is any in this recipe you don't like, feel free to swap for something else.
We always went for peppers, courgette, onion and parsnips. Parsnips might seem like an odd addition with the vegetables and feta, but the flavours just pair so well together.
Can I skip the butter?
You could but seriously, it's one tablespoon of butter which is only 50 calories per person, 50 calories is not going to make you gain weight and you just won't get the same result with a spray oil.
The butter adds to the flavour of the pasta with everything else, it's so worth it.

Thanks so much, I tried the recipe today it was so flavoursome, I would really recommend this... really impressed you emailed back so quickly too 🙂

I am glad you enjoyed it. Sometimes roasted vegetables can become a little dry using spray oil, but I found adding some tomatoes in with the veggies, gave them a nice coating when mixed and stopped them going too dry. Roasted vegetables with feta cheese is one of my favourite food combinations 🙂

Just had this for dinner - delicious.
