Olive Oil split ½ cup low sodium vegetable broth 1 box Barilla Red Lentil Penne ½ cup reserved pasta water 1 can diced tomatoes 2 tsp.

Italian seasoning 2 oz. walnuts or nut of choice ½ cup shaved or shredded Parmesan cheese ½ cup fresh basil or herb of choice. Mince 6 cloves of garlic. Cut 1 head of cauliflower into florets yields cups. Make sure all the pieces are relatively the same size to ensure they cook evenly.

Heat a skillet to medium and add 1 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Add the garlic to the skillet and saute for minutes, stirring often. Add the cauliflower florets to the skillet along with a generous pinch of salt and pepper.

Made this last night. I used a whole small head of cauliflower, and added a generous splash of red wine and a touch of the pasta water.

Two things: Although I followed the recipe almost exactly omitted the sugar , why blanch the cauliflower before roasting it, other than to flavor the pasta water? I may skip that in the future. Double it for 12oz, or else dinner for two. I saw no need to blanch the cauliflower, instead simply roasted using Amanda Hesser's recipe for roasted cauliflower on this site.

It all made for a delicious dinner. Made this last night again with a variation: Instead of using thyme, I decided to go all out North Africa and used harissa instead. It was delicious. I recommend this to anybody who enjoys NA flavors. Another tip: I only partially cooked the bucatini in the water.

Part way through I lifted it out of the water and into the pan with the sauce and added a good cup or so of the pasta water into the sauce and let it cook to al dente in the sauce.

Still doubling tomatoes and cauli for 12 oz pasta. I roasted the cauliflower with fresh tomatoes and added some chorizo. Super tasty! I would wait until everything else was cooked and ready to serve before adding the roasted cauliflower, having skipped the parboiling as well.

Cooking it with the tomato sauce makes it too soft and it just disappears. Made as written, this is a one-note dish. Two generous tbs of harissa makes this really sing. I didn't blanch the cauliflower, doubled the tomatoes, used Turkish black olives, served with parsley and feta cheese.

Very good. I always feel chunky sauces like this are better with a medium pasta shape instead of spaghetti. I used rigatoni and it was perfect. Like many others I doubled all the sauce ingredients and the ratio was right. I head cauliflower, 1 lb ww spaghetti, 1 lg can tomatoes, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, fennel seed, more garlic, only roasted cauliflower not parboiled, 1 can of chickpeas for protein.

Start the sauce while oven is preheating, then get the cauliflower in the oven and start the water boiling; it comes together pretty fast. Added one cup of pasta water to the sauce and finished spaghetti in it.

Feta à table! Doubled cauliflower but only one can of tomatoes. Will double tomatoes next time. Used pasta water to add some more moisture. A winner! As others say, no reason to blanch the cauliflower first. Used more cauliflower, garlic, and a 15 oz can of diced tomatoes with green chilis because that was what I had.

With the kalamata olives, feta cheese and thyme it is more like "Greek Spaghetti" so doesn't need to be saucy. But if I went with Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese I think I might use 32 oz can of crushed tomatoes to make it more saucy.

Simple, delicious and belly warming as a plate of pasta should be!

Barbera is the everyday wine of the Piedmontese, and this pasta will show you why. High in acid, low in tannin, and chock-full of bright blackberry fruitiness, Barberas are perhaps the best wines in the world to serve with tomato-based dishes.
