Roasted Pepper Alfredo Penne
I LOVE roasted vegetables. I haven’t roasted any variety yet that I haven’t absolutely drooled over. I’m not sure what it is about them exactly, maybe because it’s just different than steamed or boiled.
For this recipe, I used bell peppers, penne, and jarred Alfredo sauce because that’s what I had in my pantry/frig. Super quick to throw together and my husband keeps asking for more of it.

How to make Roasted Pepper Alfredo Penne
All you need is 1 red bell pepper, 1 green bell pepper, 1 orange bell pepper, 1 yellow bell pepper, 1 onion, a box of penne (or your favorite pasta shell) and 1 regular sized jar of Alfredo sauce. Mine was four cheese. YUM!
Adding chicken or even smoked sausage to this would make it even better and manlier. My husband doesn’t usually like pasta (or any entree) with no meat.
Slice up your peppers and onions and roast them while you boil water for your pasta.
Then, toss everything together, peppers, onions, prepared pasta, and alfredo sauce.
