Ingredients

Cooking spray

6 spray(s)

Cauliflower

24 oz, florets (about 6 cups)

Red onion

1 medium, sliced

Table salt

¾ tsp, divided

Black pepper

¼ tsp

Garlic

2 clove(s), minced

Fresh oregano

2 tsp, minced (plus additional for garnish)

Uncooked whole wheat penne

6 oz

Crumbled feta cheese

½ cup(s)

Extra virgin olive oil

1 tsp

Fresh mint leaves

2 Tbsp, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Spray large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  2. Place cauliflower and onion in prepared pan. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and the pepper and lightly spray with olive oil nonstick spray. Toss to coat and spread vegetables in single layer. Roast until crisp-tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in garlic and oregano. Spray again with nonstick spray and roast until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes longer.
  3. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta cooking water.
  4. Return pasta to same pot. Stir in cauliflower mixture, feta, oil, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and enough of reserved cooking water to evenly moisten pasta and vegetables. Divide evenly among 4 plates and sprinkle with additional oregano and fresh mint, if using.
  5. Serving size: 2 cups
