Broccoli-Pasta Side Dish
I love to fix new recipes for my husband, Robert, and our children. With garlic and cheese, this broccoli pasta is a tasty way to get kids to eat their veggies. —Judi Lacourse, Mesa, Arizona

This is one of my favorite recipes. It is my go-to for an easy, delicious side dish with my Sunday night grilled chicken. It makes enough, that we have extra for Monday’s lunch
My family loved this recipe! Next time, I'm only going to use 1 garlic clove. I added some roasted chicken on top before I served this. Add a salad and some garlic bread and supper is served.
I made this for dinner tonight, adding a handful of sliced dry salami and a splash of cream, to make it a light one-dish meal instead of a side. An easy dish, ready to serve 10 minutes after the water boils.I think if I were making as a side I would still add just a bit of milk or cream, to help the cheese and oil stick to the broccoli.
Good, but would be better with a bit of sauce. Very dry
This dish was AMAZING! I added fresh spinach to the broccoli and mixed it into the pasta. I doubled the recipe (except for the oil) and it was such a hit. I have 3 kids (4 if you count my husband) 8,5 & 3 and they went for seconds!
I've been making this dish and sharing the recipe for years! It's one of my family's favorite dishes.
Tasty, tasty, tasty!! This combination pleases even the most picky eater!!
A tasty side dish. I cut down the olive oil to one fourth a cup, and think I'll use less the next time I make it. Very good recipe!
Very good. I saw this in the Taste of Home magazine almost 20 years ago and wanted to try it then--wish I hadn't waited so long!
