Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet (or two) with foil.
  • Dice pepper, squash, and onion; peel and dice potato, cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces, and slice mushrooms in half. Try making all veggies similar in size.
  • Add all veggies to a large mixing bowl, along with olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss until coated evenly, then spread out onto a baking sheet. If the veggies begin to overlap, a second baking sheet may used. Bake for 30 minutes until soft and slightly browned, stirring half way through.
  • While veggies are roasting, cook pasta to al dente according to the package instructions. Drain and return to pan. Stir in butter.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, paprika, and remaining salt and pepper. Add to the pasta, stir, and cook over medium until heated through--approximately 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in cheeses until fully coated. Fold in the veggies.
  • Serve with sliced strawberries on the side.
