Ingredients
4 1/2 oz. (about 2 cups) uncooked whole-wheat-blend or high-fiber rotini pasta (like the kind by Ronzoni)24 oz. (about 6 cups) frozen Green Giant Broccoli & Cheese Sauce 3 wedges The Laughing Cow Light Original Swiss cheese Optional: salt and black pepper
Directions
In a large pot, prepare pasta according to the instructions on the package; drain well and set aside. While pasta is cooking, place contents of the broccoli & sauce package in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave until sauce has melted and broccoli is hot, 10 - 12 minutes.

Once the bowl is cool enough to handle, remove it from the microwave and add cooked pasta. Unwrap cheese wedges and add those as well.

Mix thoroughly, ensuring that the cheese wedges are evenly distributed and the pasta and broccoli are coated in cheese sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper, if you like, and then enjoy!

    This is a great recipe. My family loves it. I sometimes add lean ground beef or diced chicken to make it a meal. - 12/17/12
