This Roasted Garlic Linguine with Oven Roasted Veggies is basically a farmer’s market in a bowl.
I don’t know about you, but I don’t want farmer’s market season to ever go away. Ever.
I could seriously spend every hard earned dollar at farmer’s markets.
Like, I just want my job to be going to farmer’s markets every day and spending money. Especially someone else’s money. Is that so much to ask???
Just kidding. Maybe.
I love coming up with new dishes using whatever magical treasures I’ve amassed in a single farmer’s market trip, and this Roasted Garlic Linguine with Oven Roasted Veggies recipe is an easy-peasy way to do that.

As long as you have pasta, tomatoes of some sort, an onion, and a couple of heads of garlic, you can really customize this pasta dish using whatever veggies you have on hand.
I live in central Ohio and I’m lucky to have access to a summer farmer’s market pretty close to where I live.
One of my favorite vendors is Ohio City Pasta, which sells the most delicious fresh pastas, including the spinach linguine that I used in this recipe.
You can use any flat pasta that you like, but I highly recommend making sure it’s fresh. If you don’t have a farmer’s market with an abundant supply of pasta, you should be able to find some at your local grocery store.
When in doubt, any linguine or fettuccine will work.

How to Roast Vegetables:
Heat your oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment or foil. Prepare your heads of garlic by slicing the tops off, drizzling with olive oil, sprinkling with salt, and wrapping with foil. Here’s a good tutorial if you need help with this step.
Next, place your cut veggies on your lined baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with Italian seasoning, salt, & pepper, then toss the veggies and massage them in the oil & seasonings.
Arrange the veggies in a single layer on the baking sheet and place the prepared garlic in the middle. Roast for about 25 minutes and remove from the oven.

How to Cook Pasta:
Heat a salted pot of water to boil and cook your pasta according to package directions.
Reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water and set aside, then drain the pasta.
No need to rinse the pasta – it’ll get enough coating from olive oil while cooking.
How to Make Pasta with Vegetables:
Heat a large skillet over medium, and add some olive oil. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves into the butter & oil, and allow to simmer for a minute or two to infuse the flavor of the garlic into the fat.
Add your pasta to the skillet, then pour in the reserved pasta water, sprinkle with salt & pepper, and toss to coat.
Add the roasted veggies and cook for 1-2 more minutes to evenly distribute the flavors.
Plate your pasta as desired and sprinkle with grated Parm to serve.
Finally, get in there and dig in.

You will love this Roasted Garlic Linguine with Oven Roasted Veggies almost as much as you probably love summer.
