Broccoli Pasta

Whole Food Love with Chef Cynthia Louise

Broccoli may seem to be the old kale, however, it is not a vegetable we should be replacing. Broccoli has a whole different action on the body when compared to our other leafy friends, and it's one of the world's healthiest foods.

Serves: 2

Ingredients

(use organic where possible)

• 2 cups raw pasta
• 1 head broccoli, (chopped into large pieces)
• 1 cup green peas, frozen
• ¼ leek, roughly chopped (even the green part)
• 1 cup parsley, roughly chopped
• Olive oil
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

1. Cook the pasta until medium or undercooked. (Follow the pasta cooking instructions.)
2. Add the rest of the ingredients and cook until the pasta is al dente.
3. Drain and serve with fresh parsley and a splash of olive oil.
