When my son was in college he worked as a Fireman for the University and this roasted vegetable pasta was a favorite of his fellow firefighters.    This sweet Italian sausage pasta recipe is easy, healthy and totally satisfying.
 I always loved the idea that the Firemen took turns preparing dinner and they would eat together.  My son is still able to prepare this even in his sleep.   And this has been one of our favorite quick dinner ideas at our house for some time.  And I was glad to share Italian sausage and veggies pasta dish with my son and glad his fellow firefighters enjoyed it.
