Best Black Orange Halloween Pasta From Scracth Recipes
BLACK PASTA WITH SCALLOPS
This is a stunning dish to look at with the black pasta and white scallops on top. The black pasta is very different, both in appearance and taste (made with squid ink). From LCBO Food & Drink Magazine Winter 2003. Serves 2 as main course or 4 as an appetizer.

BLACK AND ORANGE HALLOWEEN PASTA
Cooking by color might not be the surest way to devise holiday-appropriate recipes, but who can resist the lure of black linguine on Halloween? Tossing it with pumpkin-hued vegetables lusty with garlic and hot pepper might seem like hobgoblin overkill, except that the flavors work well together. Really well. So much so that you'll be making this pasta combination again and again, long after the jack-o-lanterns have disappeared.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in middle.
- Toss squash and bell peppers with garlic, thyme, red pepper flakes, oil, and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a 17- by 11-inch 4-sided sheet pan. Roast, stirring once, until vegetables are just tender and browned in spots, 25 to 35 minutes.
- While vegetables finish roasting, cook linguine in a pasta pot of well-salted boiling water until al dente. Reserve 1/2 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 add vegetable mixture to pasta in pot and toss to combine.
