Pasta, veggies and cheese combine to make a tasty meal in minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 bunch broccoli, (1 lb/500 g)
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 tsp each salt and pepper
  • 1 cup vegetable stock
  • 6 cups bow tie pasta, (about 12 oz/375 g)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley

Preparation

In large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; fry mushrooms, broccoli stems, onion, garlic, salt and pepper, stirring occasionally, until liquid is evaporated, about 5 minutes.

Add broccoli florets and stock; cover and simmer over low heat until broccoli is tender, about 4 minutes.

Meanwhile, in large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until tender but firm, about 10 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup (50 mL) cooking liquid.

Add pasta and reserved cooking liquid to broccoli mixture; toss to coat. Add Parmesan cheese and parsley; gently toss to combine.

Additional information :

Tips: To save time, look for packaged sliced mushrooms in the produce area of the grocery store.

While Parmesan cheese is a likely choice for pasta, there are other excellent hard cheeses to try, such as Romano, grana Padano, old Cheddar or Gouda.
