Roasted Asparagus and Radish Pasta
I love using Spring produce like radishes, peas and asparagus in my meals this time of the year! They are all really good served just raw in salads, but for an even more intense flavor I like to roast my veggies! You may have roasted asparagus before but most people don’t think to roast radishes. They are actually really delicious prepared this way and they get sweet when roasted with some of the bitterness going away. The recipe I am sharing with you today combines those two veggies with spring peas in a delicious gluten free pasta that is really simple and easy to make, and so good! Also, this is a balanced healthy meal you can feel good about eating since it contains fiber from all of the veggies and protein (thanks to the quinoa pasta and peas)! It is the perfect thing to make on a weeknight for dinner!

These ones happen to be vegan, so if you are allergic to dairy or eggs, or just choose not to eat them, these are the perfect thing to make! They taste just as delicious as traditional scones too!
