Instructions
- For the vegetables: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Coat a large rimmed baking sheet with vegetable oil spray. Combine all the vegetables in a large bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle with rosemary, salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Spread out the vegetables in a single layer on the prepared sheet. Roast until tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and place in a large serving bowl.
- For the dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, safflower oil, sour cream, lemon zest, lemon juice, chives, mint, parsley, salt and pepper until smooth.
- Add the roasted vegetables and dressing to the cooked pasta. Toss until all ingredients are coated and serve.
