This comes from one of my cooklets. Sensible Pasta recipes. By Hershey Food Corp. Very tasty, and good for you too! Changed up a little for my tastes.
Ingredients:
3 cups shelled pasta, uncooked (rotini, rotelle)
3 cups frozen broccoli
1/2 cup coarsely chopped yellow sweet pepper
3 tablespoons margarine or 3 tablespoons butter
5 garlic cloves, sliced
1/4 teaspoon crushed dried red pepper flakes (optional)
1/3 cup grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
Directions:
1. Cook pasta according to package directions; during last 2 minutes of cooking, stir in broccoli and sweet yellow pepper.
2. Drain pasta and vegetables. In non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt margarine; add garlic and dried red pepper flakes.
3. Cook 1 minute; do not brown.
4. Toss hot pasta and vegetables with garlic mixture; sprinkle with cheese.
5. Salt to taste.
