Soooo this past weekend Trevor and I actually took TWO days off.
It was freaking amazing.
On Saturday, Trevor and I slept in, watched Shark Tank (of course), then had a little day date and grabbed a late lunch. After that, we invited some friends over, ate a TON of our fave Wisconsin Cheese, drank a few margaritas, and just chatted the day away while the pups played!
It. Was. Glorious.
Saturday night we went to bed fully prepared to wake up and work. . .
But then Sunday morning rolled around and it just felt like it needed to be one of those reeeeeeeally lazy Sundays.
So.
We made it a reeeeeeally lazy Sunday.
We watched Halloween movies, had leftover breakfast tarts (recipe coming soon!) for brunch, and ordered Indian food for dinner.
It. Was. Glorious.
So then Monday rolls around and we’re actually feeling really refreshed and letmetellyou, I got SO much work done – including recipe testing and photographing this Roasted Fall Vegetable Pasta Recipe! I think I need to try that two day weekend thing more often. 😉
Luckily, this was the perfect way to ease back into work, because it’s so darn easy to make!
First, you’re going to whisk together the most amazing sauce: olive oil, balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, garlic, salt, and pepper.
Set this aside, while you prep your veggies: brussels sprouts and butternut squash.
Toss the veggies in half the sauce, roast ’em up, and in the last 8-ish minutes, you’re going to throw some pecans and pumpkin seeds into the mix.
Then, all that’s left is to toss together the roasted nuts/veggies with someorecchiette pasta <– OMG yum, crumbled goat cheese, dried cranberries, and the remaining sauce.
Season with more salt, to taste and you’ve got yourself a quick and easy, less mess, healthy-ISH totally satisfying, delicious, cozy, vegetarian dinner!
This pasta is a little tangy from the balsamic, a little sweet from the maple syrup, a little creamy from the goat cheese, and full of so much texture from the roasted vegetables and nuts. . .
You guys. I’m tellin’ you. You’ve got all the bases for fall perfection covered with thisRoasted Fall Vegetable Pasta Recipe!
Promise. 😉
