Garlic Parmesan Pasta

There are days when I just don’t want any meat for dinner. This is an easy, delicious dish just for one of those days. If you feel the need for meat, this dish also makes a great side dish. I’ve also topped the pasta with grilled chicken breast, which was equally as delicious.

Recipe

1 box 16 oz bow tie pasta
1 medium onion
6 cloves of finely chopped garlic about 2 Tbls
​2 cups broccoli
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
3-4 Tbls olive oil
2 Tbls butter

Chop the onion and garlic then set aside. Boil the pasta and blanch the broccoli. Heat olive oil in a large frying pan or wok. Add onion and garlic. Cook until onions are transparent, careful not to burn. Add pasta and broccoli heat add butter, red pepper flakes Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Enjoy. Serves 4-6 depending on the appetite.
