4 Tbsp pesto
1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1/3 cup olive oil
12 oz pasta
salt/pepper
parmesan cheese

METHOD
  1. Boil water and add salt for pasta. Cook according to packaging.

  3.  To cut broccoli leaves, cut out the stem like you would with kale and then julienne the leaves. Boil water and blanch the broccoli leaves for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add the julienned broccoli leaves to the olive oil mixture in the skillet. Sauté for about 2 minutes.
  5. Add cooked pasta to skillet and toss while adding the reserved olive oil mixture. Remove from heat and let sit for a couple minutes. Top with grated parmesan and serve.
