Roasted Tomato and Zucchini Pasta

Ingredients:

- Cherry or grape tomatoes (I used one package)
- 2 Zucchini squash

- Pasta (anything will work, I used angel hair)
- Olive Oil
- Salt and Pepper

- Parmesean cheese

- Spaghetti Sauce (optional)


Instructions:

Cut up the zucchini squash into fourths. I cut it down the middle (the long way), and then take the 2 halves and cut them down the middle, and chop them into small pieces. Put the cut up zucchini and tomatoes on a cookie sheet. Pour olive oil, salt, and pepper over them and mix it with your hands. Cook the veggies in the oven at 350 for about 20 minutes. Then cook your pasta. When the veggies were done I put them in a little spaghetti sauce and sprinkled cheese on top. That's it! It is easy, and pretty healthy. If you use wheat pasta, it would be even better! Enjoy!

Easy Pasta Salad

1 bag of multi-colored rotelli macaroni (cooked of course)
1 small can of sliced olives

1 can of Mexicorn (corn mixed w/ peppers)

Mix it all together and enjoy! It's great for lunch or dinner (about 4-6 servings), and keeps great in the fridge. Tastes good hot or cold.
