Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- On a large heavy baking sheet, toss all of the vegetables with the oil, salt, pepper, and dried herbs to coat. Transfer half of the vegetable mixture to another heavy large baking sheet and arrange evenly over the baking sheets. Bake until the carrots are tender and the vegetables begin to brown, stirring after the first 10 minutes, about 20 minutes total.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, tender but still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
- Toss the pasta with the vegetable mixtures in a large bowl to combine. Toss with the cherry tomatoes and enough reserved cooking liquid to moisten. Season the pasta with salt and pepper, to taste. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and serve immediately.
FETTUCCINE PRIMAVERA
Steps:
- Thoroughly sift together all-purpose flour, semolina flour, and pinch of salt. On a clean surface, make a mountain out of flour mixture then make a deep well in center. Break the eggs into the well and add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Whisk eggs very gently with a fork, gradually incorporating flour from the sides of the well. When mixture becomes too thick to mix with a fork, begin kneading with your hands. Knead dough for 8 to 12 minutes, until it is smooth and supple. Dust dough and work surface with semolina as needed to keep dough from becoming sticky. Wrap dough tightly in plastic and allow it to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. Roll out dough with a pasta machine or a rolling pin to desired thickness. Run through the widest cutter on the pasta machine to make fettuccine. Bring salted water to a boil in a large pot. Cook pasta until al dente, 1 to 8 minutes, depending on thickness. Drain immediately. Add remaining oil to saute pan. Add in garlic and cook until slightly brown. Add mushrooms and cook until soft. Add other vegetables to warm through and finish cooking. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm. Place some sauteed vegetables on plate. Add some warm pasta. Top with more vegetables and more pasta. Add a few more vegetables and garnish with parsley.

Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh vegetables. If you can't find fresh vegetables, frozen vegetables will work just as well.
- To save time, you can use pre-cooked chicken or shrimp. Just be sure to heat it through before adding it to the pasta.
- If you don't have any white wine, you can use chicken broth instead.
- Be careful not to overcook the pasta. It should be cooked al dente, or "to the tooth." This means that it should be slightly firm to the bite.
- Serve the pasta immediately, topped with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley.
