Serve this beautiful vegetarian pasta with our Caprese Salad or add Chicken Arrabiata for meat lovers. Do you have a household full of picky eaters? My kids definitely started that way. It’s a long and tiring road to develop healthy eating habits in your little ones but it does pay off in the end. Let’s take this broccoli pasta with sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, chillies and Parmesan cheese. It sounds like it’s made for grown ups yet my daughter had seconds and my son had thirds!
Broccoli and Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta
This pasta was inspired by a little side dish I make often. The recipe was given to me by an Italian lady on one of our trips to Italy. It is very simple. Just broccoli sauteed in olive oil with garlic, sun-dried tomatoes and red chillies. It tastes so wonderfully I thought throwing some pasta and parmesan into the mix made perfect sense and I was right! It’s so easy to make I am confident even kids can master this quick recipe in no time. Broccoli and sun-dried tomato pasta takes as long to prepare as to boil a pot of pasta! If you are in the mood for something healthy, lean and nutritious with just a hint of spice, this little number is IT.
Serving Suggestions
This pasta recipe is vegetarian and I never miss meat when I am eating it. However, if do, I recommend making my Chicken Marsala. It’s a reader favourite, and an easy recipe, which will make you feel like you are eating out in a restaurant. For veggie enthusiasts, I suggest this delicious and unusual Warm Zucchini Salad with Balsamic Dressing. Or if you want to kick off your dinner the way Italians do, prepare a Trio of Bruschetta appetisers. Healthy, incredibly colourful and so tasty!
