This recipe calls for cooking the veggies a bit in a pan before putting together the casserole. I'm sure oven-roasting them would be good as well! (Trying this recipe out tomorrow with the homemade sauce suggested by the author.)

Easy Vegetable #PastaBake

By: Joanne Gallagher Updated: Jan 5, 2026

"Our family loves it when this easy pasta bake hits the table. It’s inspired by our favorite vegetable lasagna, but takes way less time to prepare. While I still love that lasagna, this vegetarian baked pasta is my go-to when I’m short on time."

I make something similar. Roasting the veggies brings out the flavor! Not sure about the sweet potato though. Carrots, would be good.

Vegetable #PastaBake: A Gluten Free Protein Packed #Vegetarian #Casserole

"To create this vegetable pasta bake, I wanted to choose a variety of colors for our veggies. I also wanted to stick with vegetables I knew my kids would eat.

I decided to use a sweet potato, a zucchini, and a couple of sweet peppers (red and yellow). I also included a few mushrooms, half of a red onion, and some whole garlic cloves."

Ingredients:
- 12 ounces spaghetti or pasta of choice (340g)
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup chopped onion (140g)
- 2 medium zucchini, chopped
- 2 medium yellow squash, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced, about 1 tablespoon
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 (28 ounce) can whole peeled tomatoes
- One (12 ounce) jar roasted red peppers, drained and cut into ½-inch pieces, about 1 cup
- 2 to 3 teaspoons mushroom powder, optional
- 5 cups spinach leaves (226g)
- Handful of fresh basil leaves, plus more for serving

Had a bowl of "random veggies found in the fridge and freezer" for lunch today.

Simple foods, fuels for focus:

Local pumpkin, grilled eggplant slices from a bag, salsa, kidney beans, roasted in the oven a while, cheddar added afterward.
