Vegetarian, omnivore, herbivore, meatavore, whatever you call yourself, there's a pasta dish for that. And most pasta dishes can be made to satisfy all of those (though not generally at the same time). Whether I'm feeding myself or a crowd, picky or plentiful eaters, meat or veggie lovers, I know I can always whip up a pasta dish and please just about anyone and everyone.

I know I'm all about healthy, but just because I'm cooking up pasta doesn't mean I've given up. There are many, many ways to make a pasta dish healthy. All you need to do is incorporate some easy changes and add lots of delicious roasted vegetables. You can even add cheese! Pasta and cheese and you're still calling it healthy? I am!

The best part is, you can mix up the vegetables to include your favorites or what you have on hand. You can also add lean ground beef,  sausage, or white beans if you want more protein. Basically, this is a mas-up of two of my favorite pasta recipes - Baked Ziti Bolognese and Roasted Vegetable Pasta.
