Roasted summer squash, greens and white beans with pasta

This is a delicious tasting pasta dish!
Ingredients;
1 large summer squash, roasted and chopped
1 package of whole grain pasta, cooked
1 bunch of greens
( I used escarole and swiss chard)
2 medium cloves of garlic, minced
6 halved grape tomatoes
3 tbs olive oil
3 tbs water
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup of white beans

Quarter summer squash and place in a baking dish. Season with salt, pepper and olive oil. Roast uncovered in oven at 435 degrees, until cooked, about 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook pasta.
While pasta is cooking add olive oil into a skillet. Heat oil, saute garlic, greens and tomatoes over medium heat. Add 3 tbs water to veggies and continue to cook. Once veggies are soft and squash is roasted, chop and add the squash to the pan, along with the cooked white beans. Toss in the pasta. Season with salt and pepper, then serve.
This dish also tastes great with lemon juice squeezed over top.
