6 oz linguine or spaghetti

1 pouch Le Sauce & Co. Savory Provençal Pasta Sauce

1 small zucchini, chopped

1 cup mushrooms, halved

½ medium eggplant, chopped into cubes
-
2 tbsp olive oil
-
Salt & pepper to taste
-
Grated Parmesan or vegan cheese (optional)
-
Fresh parsley or basil for garnish
Instructions:
-
Preheat oven to 425°F. On a sheet pan, toss the chopped zucchini, mushrooms, and eggplant with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20–25 minutes until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
-
Meanwhile, cook the linguine in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package directions. Reserve about ¼ cup of pasta water before draining.

In a large skillet, pour in the Le Sauce & Co. Savory Provençal Sauce and warm gently over medium-low heat. If the sauce feels too thick, add a bit of the reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency.

Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss to coat. Stir in the roasted vegetables, mixing well so every bite is saucy and loaded with veggies.
-
Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs and a sprinkle of grated cheese if desired.
