Roasted Balsamic Vegetables With Penne image

An extremely easy and healthy vegetarian dinner or side dish. I discovered this recipe in Shape magazine. I made just a few changes considering I couldn't find all the ingredients needed from the original recipe at my local grocery store. Needless to say, it turned out to be delicious!

4 teaspoons dried basil, divided
4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, divided
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
