Featuring baked zucchini, asparagus and cherry tomatoes tossed with extra virgin olive oil, this flavorful recipe is great for an easy lunch or weeknight dinner. The Al Bronzo Mezzi Rigatoni pasta pairs elegantly with the pesto sauce.

 

Barilla Al Bronzo Mezzi Rigatoni pasta is made by extruding dough through a bronze die that is micro engraved. This gives the pasta a rougher texture, allowing pasta sauces to perfectly adhere to our beautifully crafted pasta.
