Fresh tomatoes and broccoli add pretty color to this hearty spaghetti dish from Lillian Justis of Woodbine, New Jersey.
Ingredients:
3 quarts water
8 ounces uncooked spaghetti
2 cups fresh broccoli florets
2 large tomatoes, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup sliced ripe olives
1/2 cup minced fresh parsley
1/4 cup grated romano cheese
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
1. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, bring water to a boil. Add spaghetti; boil, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Add broccoli; boil 3-4 minutes longer or until pasta and broccoli are tender.
2. Meanwhile, in a nonstick skillet, saute the tomatoes, garlic and pepper flakes in oil for 2 minutes. Drain pasta mixture; add to the skillet. Add remaining ingredients and toss to coat. Yield: 4 servings.
