Pasta with White Beans, Roasted Cauliflower, & Toasted Garlic Breadcrumbs Recipe - (4.8/5) image

Provided by laurenzembron

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 head cauliflower, cut into 1/2-inch thick slabs
8 oz whole wheat pasta
2 slices whole wheat bread, torn into pieces and pulsed in a food processor until coarse crumbs form (about 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs)
3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided use
4 large garlic cloves, finely minced
1 can white cannelini beans, drained and rinsed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat the cauliflower slabs with 1 Tbsp olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Lay out in an even layer on a baking sheet; roast until browned and crisp, about 20-25 minutes. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions (preferably to al dente); drain. While the pasta is cooking, add homemade breadcrumbs to a dry skillet set over medium heat. Toast, stirring often, until crisp and golden-brown, about 4-5 minutes; transfer to a plate. Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in the skillet over medium heat and add the garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds; remove skillet from heat. Add the toasted breadcrumbs to the skillet and toss until coated with the garlic olive oil. Season to taste with salt. Toss the beans, toasted garlic breadcrumbs, and remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil with the hot drained pasta. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve on top of the roasted cauliflower.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add my own personal touches. I usually add some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and a bit of red pepper flakes.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish turned out really watery. I think I may have added too much pasta water.

I found the dish to be a bit bland. I would have liked more garlic and maybe some red pepper flakes.

The roasted cauliflower was a bit too charred for my taste, but the rest of the dish was delicious.
