Ingredients:
3 red bell peppers
2 small onions
1 whole garlic bulb
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup fresh shredded Parmesan cheese
8 ounces pasta shells
Directions:
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cut bell peppers in half removing the seeds and membranes. Remove the papery outer garlic skin, keeping the inner skin intact. Cut the top 1/4 inch of the bulb exposing the individual cloves.
- Coat the bell peppers, onions and garlic in the olive oil. Wrap the garlic bulb in foil and roast along with the peppers and onions on a baking sheet for 1 hour.
- When vegetables have about 15 minutes remaining, bring water to boil in a pasta pot. Cook pasta according to box directions.
- When the vegetables are tender remove from oven and let cool 5-10 minutes.
- Remove the skin from the bell peppers and the onions. Squeeze the bottom part of the garlic bulb so the roasted garlic comes out the top.
- Place the bell peppers, onions, garlic, basil, crushed red peppers and yogurt in a blender. Blend until smooth.
- Drain pasta and place into a warm serving dish. Mix the sauce with the pasta shells and top with Parmesan cheese.
