2 cups chopped broccoli

4 big pieces of garlic, smashed and cut in half. I leave them big so who ever doesn't want a garlic bit can pick them out....I can't imagine why though.

8 oz pasta, I used mezzi rigatoni, and always use Barilla pasta.

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil.

Pecorino Romano cheese, grated (Not in Nutrition facts)

Salt and Pepper

Cook pasta for 7 of the 10-11 min
While pasta is cooking fry garlic in small frying pan in oil until golden.
Add broccoli to pasta and water for minutes 8-10.
Reserve 1/4 cup pasta water then drain pasta and broccoli and return to pot.
Add garlic and oil to pot and mix well.

Number of Servings: 5
