Pesto Roasted Veggies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. (I cooked our veggies in our toaster oven, first on slow bake, heating them only from the bottom, and then on bake, heating them from the top and bottom, for the last 10 minutes or so. If you don't have this setting on your appliance, you may want to cover them with foil for the first 10 minutes.).
• Cut the carrots, tomatoes, pepper and onion. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and spread the veggies evenly. Drizzle the veggies with olive oil and sprinkle with a dash of salt and a dash of pepper.
• Cook the veggies for 10 minutes.
• Whisk the olive oil, water and pesto mixture together in a small saucepan. Heat on medium-high heat and whisk frequently until the pesto begins to boil.
• Put a pot on for the ravioli.
• Has it been 10 minutes yet? Flip the veggies and set the timer for another 10 minutes.
• When the pesto mixture comes to a boil, turn it down and simmer for 5 minutes, whisking often.
• When the water is ready for the ravioli, throw it in the pot. The pesto mixture will begin to thicken as the ravioli cooks.
• After 20-25 minutes total, your veggies, pesto and ravioli should be ready. Drain the ravioli and throw all of the ingredients together in a large bowl. Serve with Parmesan, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Place mushrooms, onion, peppers, zucchini & olives in a roasting pan lined with heavy-duty foil.
• Combine oil, garlic, rosemary, oregano and thyme; drizzle over vegetables and toss to coat.
• Cover and bake at 400°F for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, for sauce, combine basil, oil, Parmesan cheese and garlic in a food processor; cover and process until smooth, scraping sides often; set aside.
• Place rolled out pizza dough in 9x13-inch pan going half way up sides of pan.
• Spread with sauce; top with the tomato slices.
• Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
• Top with roasted vegetables.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until vegetables are cooked and cheese is melted and bubbly.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 230C/fan 210C/gas 8. Rub the sliced veg with the oil, garlic, salt and black pepper, then place in a roasting tin in an even layer. Roast for 30 mins until golden and soft.
• Allow to cool slightly, then tip into a large bowl. Mix with the basil pesto, spinach leaves and toasted pine nuts, then serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Spread the broccolini, squash, and red onion on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
• Roast the vegetables for 20 minutes, until the broccolini is beginning to crisp and the squash and onions are tender. Remove from the oven and set aside.
• While the vegetables are roasting, make the spinach pesto: In a food processor, combine the spinach, walnuts, lemon zest, garlic, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes. With the processor running, slowly stream in the remaining ½ cup of olive oil until the pesto reaches a smooth, thick, and spreadable consistency.
• Cook the orzo according to package instructions.
• Add ¾ cup of the pesto to the warm orzo and toss to coat. Mix in the roasted vegetables and more pesto to taste.
• Serve warm or chilled.
• Enjoy!
