My Italian grandmother used to make this for me when I was a kid. Maybe this was her trick in getting her grand kids to eat veggies?! But it worked and everyone loved it!
I don't know exact measurements, but add things to your taste!
The trick is to cook the pasta with the broccoli in the same water so it picks up the flavor.
I gave the broccoli a head start and then added in the pasta and let them cook together.
After I drained them I added a little bit of milk (optional), butter, and cheese. I also added shredded chicken for some protein and a spoonful of pesto... Cause I love pesto, but those two are not traditional to my grandmas recipe.
Serve and add more cheese to taste! Oh and the cheese is grated cheese, like Parmesan or I do a Parmesan and asiago mixture.
Yum yum!
