  • Salt
  • 1/2 pound short whole wheat pasta
  • 4 large red bell peppers tops cut off and reserved, seeds and ribs discarded
  • Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) plus more for drizzling
  • 4 jarred roasted red peppers
  • 1 small red onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • 2 small portobello mushroom caps chopped
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper
  • 2 sprigs rosemary stems discarded and leaves chopped
  • 1 28-ounce can fire-roasted crushed or diced tomatoes
  • 2 cups arugula or baby spinach (a few generous handfuls)
  • 1 cup loosely packed basil leaves
  • 1 cup pecorino-romano cheese grated

Recipe Method

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Bring a large pot of water to a boil salt it, add the pasta and cook until al dente.

2. Trim the bottoms of the bell peppers, without cutting a hole, so that they stand. Season inside with salt and black pepper. Turn the peppers bottom side up in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, set the tops alongside and drizzle with EVOO. Roast for 20 minutes.

3. Using a food processor, puree the roasted red peppers. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons EVOO, 2 turns of the pan over medium heat. Add the red onion, garlic, mushrooms, crushed red pepper and rosemary and cook until softened, 7 minutes.

4. Stir in the pureed peppers and the fire-roasted tomatoes; season with salt and black pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes. Add the pasta and toss. Add the arugula and basil and cook until wilted.

5. Preheat the broiler. Turn the peppers upright.; fill with pasta. Top with the cheese and broil until melted, 2 minutes. Cover with the tops and serve with any extra pasta.
