Pasta and Broccoli

My kids love pasta and broccoli. My oldest asks for it once a week. As you can tell from the blog, I haven't made it in a long time.

It is very simple. I par cook some broccoli in the microwave. I begin to boil water to cook a pound of pasta. For this recipe, I like penne and I usually get the whole wheat. In a frying pan, I heat some olive oil and saute garlic (I like a lot.) Add the broccoli. Stir and add breadcrumbs. I then drain the pasta and mix it with the broccoli. If I need to, I add a little more olive oil. Top with Parmesan.
