Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the whole wheat penne pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the grated carrots to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.
Add the diced tomatoes, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down and the mixture thickens slightly.
Combine the cooked pasta with the carrot and tomato mixture in a large mixing bowl. Mix well to evenly coat the pasta.
Transfer the pasta mixture to a lightly greased baking dish. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly with a golden top.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Cheesy Carrot and Tomato Pasta Bake!
