Healthy Broccoli Pasta
- 1 box Pasta, i.e. penne, or rotini
- 3 Broccoli Crowns
- 1/8 c. Olive Oil
- 1/2 c. Parmesan Cheese
- 2 cloves Garlic – minced
- 1 T. Lemon Juice
Serves 5
Boil 1 box of your favorite pasta. I prefer to use rotini/spirals. Cook until tender and drain. Bring 3 crowns of broccoli to a boil and cook until soft, drain and set aside. Mix 1/8 c. of olive oil, 1/2 c. Parmesan cheese, 2 minced cloves of garlic and 1 T. lemon juice Add broccoli to the olive oil mixture. Add broccoli mixture to the pasta and fold until mixed. Enjoy!
