Broccoli Siciliano

This has been a comfort dish for me for years. Different from the broccoli side dishes that call for cream soup (i love them, too!), this one has a buttery parmesan sauce that goes great with the broccoli! . The oregano is the secret ingredient that makes this dish. This can also makes a satisfying meatless entree. Note: this can be a terrific main dish using rigatoni noodles.

Steps

Boil pasta in salted water to cover about 5 minutes and add the broccoli for the last couple minutes.
Add pasta and cook until al dente.
Drain off about two thirds of the water.
Add mushrooms , tomatoes , and parmesan , oregano , butter , salt and pepper.
Cook 2 to 3 minutes until blended.
Makes 6 side dish servings.

Ingredients

broccoli florets, small shell pasta, fresh mushrooms, tomatoes, parmesan cheese, butter, dried oregano, salt and pepper
