Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Linguine pasta
  • 4 medium zucchini cut into 1/2-inch slices
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil plus extra for roasting veggies
  • 3 medium onions chopped
  • 5 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 12-oz. jar roasted peppers drained and diced
  • 18 Kalamata olives sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

Instructions
 

  • Prepare pasta according to package directions; drain and rinse with cold water; drain again.
  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Lightly grease 2 large cookie sheets. Spread zucchini on the sheets and sprinkle with vegetable oil (don’t substitute with olive oil, as olive oil will burn at such a high temperature).
  • Bake until tender-crisp.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat; add onion and garlic and sauté until onion is lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the zucchini and stir in the roasted peppers, olives, crushed red pepper flakes and cooked pasta; season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with Feta cheese and serve.
