Serves 6

Ingredients

• 1 box Tolerant Red Lentil Galaxy Kids Pasta
• 1 russet potato, cut into ½” cubes
• 1½ cups carrots, cut into ½” thick slices
• 3 cups broccoli florets
• 1 tablespoon preferred vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon fine sea salt, divided
• 1 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
• ⅓ cup nutritional yeast

DIRECTIONS

1. Cook Tolerant Red Lentil Galaxy Kids Pasta according to package directions. Set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 425℉. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
3. On a prepared sheet pan, place potatoes and carrots on one side of the pan and broccoli on the other side. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon salt. Toss vegetables to coat with oil, keeping broccoli separate from carrots and potatoes. Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
4. In a blender combine roasted potatoes, carrots, vegetable broth, remaining ½ teaspoon salt, nutritional yeast, and garlic powder. Blend until very smooth.
5. In a large bowl toss together cooked pasta and cheese sauce. Add roasted broccoli florets and toss again. Garnish with gluten-free breadcrumbs, if using. Serve immediately.
