I am a great lover of pasta. I am a great lover of broccoli. When I can combine those two loves into one quick, easy and delicious creamy pasta dish, then I am in heaven!
I adapted and downsized this recipe from a blog called Savory Nothings. It now feeds only two people which is much more manageable for myself. And they are very generous servings. I took half across to my friend Glenna and kept half for myself.
I am a huge fan of all-in-one pasta types of dishes. By that I mean pasta dishes where everything, including the pasta and the sauce, all cook in the one pan.
NO fuss, NO muss and very little to clean up. You can't go wrong!
I love, Love, LOVE broccoli. Its one of my favorite vegetables. When I saw this recipe, I just knew that I had to cook it for myself. It was right up my alley. Its rich and creamy sauce belies the simplicity of it. It only looks complicated! And you can be enjoying it in about half an hour's time! BONUS!
