WW Recipe-Cut the Fat Cookbook 1996. Accented with garlic and fresh basil, this quick pasta dish is delicious. I have not tried this yet, but it sure sounds like a meal that the whole family will enjoy. Preparation time is approximate since I have not made this dish yet. Ingredients:
6 ounces cavatelli (spirals) or 6 ounces rotelle pasta (spirals) |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
4 medium garlic cloves, finely chopped |
2 cups broccoli florets |
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3/4 ounce parmesan cheese, grated |
freshly cracked black pepper |
Directions:
1. In large pot of boiling water, cook pasta 7-9 minutes, until tender. Drain reserving 1/4 cup pasta water, and place in large serving bowl; keep warm. 2. Place large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat 30 seconds; add oil and heat 30 seconds more. Add garlic and cook, stirring frequently, 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add broccoli; cook 3-4 minutes, until tender-crisp. 3. Add broccoli mixture, basil and salt to pasta; toss, adding just enough of the reserved pasta water to moisten. Top evenly with cheese and pepper. |
