Spaghetti aglio e olio with broccoli
"The combination of broccoli and pasta is close to my heart and so much tastier than you might think. This version combines classic aglio e olio (garlic and oil) with the broccoli and has just 5 main ingredients, but is full of incredible flavor! It’s even a little creamy, but with no cream. Enjoy!"
