Sweet bright broccoli dancing with nutty cheese is the perfect 10 minute dinner!
Sometimes gifts come when you least expect it! A co-worker getting you coffee, a smile, or a surprise gift of pasta means something special. These are mini blessings telling you are being cared for and everything will be ok. I was so excited and grateful when my fave pasta brand sent me Banza pasta to cook with. There is so much I love about this pasta! First of all, the box is my favorite color, orange. Second, there is tons of protein and its made from chick peas! This pasta has amazing texture and cooks to perfect al dente. This inspired me to make a fabulous veggie pesto. Using defrosted broccoli saves the step of blanching and shocking the broccoli. I just leave broccoli in fridge over night to defrost. Hope this recipe makes you smile! Cheers to this recipe and celebrating you!
Here is the chickpea pasta I am obsessed with:
