Place the zucchinis, mushrooms and thyme in a baking dish, drizzle with oil and roast for 15-20 mins, adding the the tomatoes and chopped peppers after 10-15 mins.
    Meanwhile, to make the dressing, mix the yogurt, vinegar, tomato paste and 3 tbsp water in a bowl and season to taste with salt and pepper.
    Mix the oregano and paprika together on a plate. Roll the mozzarella balls in the seasonings to coat. Mix the pasta, vegetables and dressing, divide between 4 bowls and place the mozzarella balls on top. Garnish with oregano leaves.
