"Low-Fat" Pasta con Broccoli

So, I am bored and posting constantly today. I made dinner and I am waiting for Mike to come home so I figured I would try my hand at posting a recipe.

I have tweaked this recipe over the years to make it more healthy and I really like where it is now. Very simple but quite tasty, if you ask me!

Ingredients
-Wheat Pasta (I choose shell or rotini)
-2 or 3 spears of broccoli
-1 can of Hunts tomato sauce
-1/2 stick of margarine melted
-1 cup of 1% milk
-spices-garlic powder, cayenne pepper, minced onions (and anything else you may want)
-parmesan cheese

So simple. Boil the pasta. Add the sauce, milk and butter.Stir it all together. The sauce will now by pinkish.Add spices and cheese to taste.Steam your broccoli and then add it to the pasta. Yum yum! That is it!!!Mike just called and he is going to have to work late at work...AGAIN. I might have to eat my pasta alone :( Oh well...

Thanks for posting this - I tried this last night and it was yummy and SO easy! I just added a little flour to thicken up the sauce a bit!
