30 Min Broccoli Pasta for Pinterst

Simple & delicious 30 Min crispy broccoli pasta is packed with tons of flavors and requires only few simple ingredients. Dinner has never been easier!

30 Min Broccoli Pasta

It’s Monday after what feels like forever. I know I always complain about monday but today I am all happy to be back to routine life. Last few days were loads of fun with family visits, watching avengers (finally!), lots of eating out and relaxing. Have you tried Torchy’s tacos yet? Well we have been having them for almost a year now but in these last three days, we ended up eating them twice but I have no complaints. My current favorite is their fried mushroom taco. Omg! Today I tried their street corn for the first time and it was not so bad. But in my mind, their queso and tacos are what makes them awesome. Talk about #foodtruck love.

Today calls for #meatlessmonday recipes and this pasta ROCKS. Crispy broccoli cooked with garlic and red chili flakes and then tossed with my favorite pasta shape and lots of LEMON JUICE. A must here! You can use lemon/ lime whatever you have on hand. But seriously this dish can not be simpler and it just makes monday night dinners so much relaxed and easy. Perfect for the picky eaters in your life.

    I’m majorly into broccoli right now, it’s by far my favorite veggie. Love this simple pasta! I need to try this instead of just roasting or steaming my broccoli and eating it plain.

    Wow just made this for my family and it was way too spicy for me and my kids. My husband ate it because he was hungry. I’ll try it again with way less garlic and flakes.

    Super easy to make! Looks delicious, tastes great!!! We switched oil for butter and added walnuts for a little bit of extra protein.
