Creamy Roasted Red Pepper Pasta
  1. Preheat the oven to 400° F. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Toss the cherry tomatoes (no need to cut the tomatoes) and the diced bell peppers onto the sheet pan. Toss veggies with 1-2 Tbsp. olive oil and some salt and pepper. Bake for 20-25 minutes Start Timer or until the veggies become tender.

  2. Meanwhile, boil water for the linguini in a large stockpot and add a nice large pinch of salt to the water. Cook the pasta according to package directions, drain and set aside.

  3. Add the shallot and remaining olive oil in a deep pan or skillet. Cook over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes Start Timer. stirring occasionally.

  4. By this time, the tomatoes and veggies should be finished. Pulse the shallots, tomatoes, and bell peppers in a food processor until they become a "sauce."

  5. Pour this sauce back into the skillet and add in the heavy cream. Let it come to a simmer.

  6. Optional: if you feel the sauce is too chunky at this point, you can blend again with an immersion blender or high-powered blender to make it smoother.

  7. Add the cooked linguine into the sauce and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and red pepper chili flakes.

  8. Garnish with lots of Parmesan and fresh basil, if using! Enjoy.
