Fettuccini with Broccoli and Mushrooms

A nice, easy vegetarian pasta entree.

Ingredients:
1 large bunch broccoli (washed trimmed and peeled)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 cup portabello mushrooms, sliced
Red Pepper flakes to taste
1/2 pound fresh tomato fettuccini

Directions:
Start large pot of lightly salted and oiled water boiling (a little oil helps keep the fettuccini from sticking together).

Cook broccoli until tender, but still crisp (about 5 minutes in the microwave).

In a saute pan over medium heat, cook broccoli and garlic in olive oil for about 5 minutes. Then turn the pan down to low and add mushrooms and red pepper flakes. Cook for 5 more minutes.

When it's ready, add drained fettuccini and stir in saute pan.

Serve with dash of salt, pepper and some freshly grated parmesan cheese.

Serves 4
