I was just in the mood for something hardy & warming...and this was the stuff I had on hand... so I just faked it...

I will admit there is a bit of extra work involved - what with needing to roast the veggies...but it's worth it...

To lower the calorie count, eliminate the beans and farfalle.
I tweeked this to lower calories and fat. My neice made this for me from Rachel Rays comfort foods cook book, and it was not bad cal or fat wise but I tweeked it anyway, so I could eat even more of it.
