Pour 3 tablespoons of olive oil in a large cooking pan on medium heat. Add sliced red onion, ½ teaspoon black pepper, ½ teaspoon of sea salt, and a dash of sugar. Allow the onions to caramelize for about 20 minutes. Then add sliced mushrooms to the pan and let cook for an additional 10 minutes. Once the onions are caramelized and the mushrooms are cooked, bring the pan to low heat.
Preheat the oven at 400 degrees. Cut the broccoli as desired and break the asparagus into fourths. Add both vegetables to a large mixing bowl with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, ½ teaspoon of sea salt, and ½ teaspoon of black pepper. Mix the vegetables together and place them on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes.
Drain the pasta and mix it with the caramelized onions and mushrooms.
