Note

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of water or broth to prevent drying out.

Substitutions: You can swap bow-tie pasta for penne, fusilli, or rotini. Try adding other roasted vegetables like eggplant, asparagus, or cherry tomatoes for variety.

Tip: For extra flavor, sprinkle with fresh basil or parsley before serving. A drizzle of extra virgin olive oil adds richness.

Safety: Ensure vegetables are cut into uniform sizes for even cooking. Stirring halfway through baking prevents burning.
