Roasted grapes, Brussels sprouts, and onions bulk out this recipe, making it light on the pasta but full of delicious flavor. Just be sure to cut all the Brussels sprouts a similar size so they roast evenly. Also, you can substitute shredded Pecorino Romano or Parmesan cheese if you don’t like the tang of goat cheese. A drizzle of balsamic vinegar ties this pasta dish together in the end.
