How to Make Angel Hair Pasta With Roasted Garlic

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Lightly spray 2 heads of garlic with cooking spray.
  3. Wrap each garlic head separately in foil.
  4. Place garlic in a small baking pan and bake for 45 minutes.
  5. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
  6. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves to extract the pulp, discarding the peels.
  7. While garlic roasts, prepare the vegetables: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  8. Add 1 medium zucchini, diced, and 1 cup of sliced mushrooms. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, until tender-crisp.
  9. In a food processor or blender, combine the roasted garlic pulp, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Blend until smooth.
  10. Add the garlic puree to the skillet with the vegetables. Stir in 1/2 cup of water and 1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes, undrained.
  11. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through.
  12. Cook 8 ounces of angel hair pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  13. Toss the hot pasta with the vegetable and garlic sauce. Serve immediately.
  14. Garnish with fresh parsley or parmesan cheese (optional).
