Roasted Summer Veggie Penne with Chickpeas

When the garden is in full swing, roast a panful of vegetables and toss with pasta for a simple plant-based comfort meal. The secret to enjoying pasta in a healthful way is to use whole-grain noodles and add more vegetables. If you haven’t roasted fennel bulbs before, you’re in for a treat; the oven brings out sweet and anise-y notes, giving the dish a lively boost. Nutritional yeast is the nondairy answer to a sprinkle of cheese and is a great source of vitamin B12.
