Here’s a pasta recipe for weeknights that’s delicious, packs a healthy wallop, and takes very little time to put together– in fact, no more time than it takes you to cook up that pasta to al dente perfection. My Garlicky Pasta with Broccoli and Beans. I used wholegrain spaghetti for this recipe, but feel free to do the gluten-free thing if you wish, or you can always use regular pasta. You do need a whole bulb of garlic for this recipe, and if you’re shy about garlic here’s something that might persuade you: when the garlic is all cooked and mellowed down to sweetness, it’s another creature altogether. Or you could always cut down on the garlic, but – really – why would you do that? I love broccoli in pasta, and summer’s a perfect time to eat bunches of this healthful veggie. To add some healthy protein and fiber to my wholegrain pasta, I used some navy beans. You can also use cannellini beans or some chickpeas. Check to get new recipe updates by email.

This is going to be a short post today, but I won’t run away before I give you the recipe. Ciao, all, and enjoy the pasta!
