Halloween Black Spiders' Leg Noodles

Directions

Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in middle.

Add squash and bell peppers with garlic, thyme, red pepper flakes, oil, and ½ teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a large bowl, toss to evenly coat.

Spread evenly a single layer in a 17- by 11-inch 4-sided sheet pan.

Roast, stirring once, until vegetables are just tender and browned in spots, about 30 minutes.

While vegetables finish roasting, cook linguine in a big pot of salted boiling water until al dente.

Reserve ½ cup cooking water, then drain pasta and return to pot.

Remove sheet pan from oven and pour reserved water over vegetables, stirring to loosen from pan.

Stir in olives, then vegetable mixture to pasta in pot and toss to combine.

Serve warm.
