I’m trying to look for more creative ways for my kids to eat more veggies.

Steps

1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
In a large baking dish, add tomatoes, onion, carrots, bell pepper, zucchini, and garlic (cut side facing up) in an even layer. Add a block of feta to the center, then drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle evenly with Italian seasoning, salt, garlic powder & black pepper. Cover with a foil, and bake for 50 minutes until the vegetables are softened. While the veggies roasting, you can boil water and cook the pasta according to package directions (if serving with pasta).
2

Once the veggies are roasted and cool enough to handle (optional I only waited 5 minutes) add everything to a blender, including juices. Blend and pulse until everything is smooth. Transfer to a pot over the stove top and taste for seasoning. Add any salt, pepper or Italian seasoning. Add the heavy cream or pasta water, mix. Let warm up and serve.
