5 cups
- Serves:
- 4
ingredients
- 473.18 ml dried radiatore
- 2 medium stalk broccoli
- 354.88 ml medium brown button mushrooms
- 1 organic lime
- 3 garlic cloves
- 59.14 ml olive oil
- 11.09 ml kosher salt
- 3.69 ml black pepper
- 113.39 g feta, crumbled
directions
- Wash broccoli, mushrooms, and lime.
- Chop the head of the broccoli so florets are approximately mushroom-sized. Cut the stalk clear of any 'bad' parts and slice into about 1/4 inch thick pieces. Set aside.
- Cut off the mushroom stems and quarter the caps. Set aside.
- Zest and juice the lime, also set aside.
- Fill a medium-sized pot half way with water, bring to a boil. Add radiatore and cook for 6-8 minutes. Drain, don't rinse, and set aside.
- In a medium skillet, heat olive oil over a medium-low heat. Mince garlic and add to pan. Let sizzle for about 20-30 seconds (we don't want burnt garlic) and add lime zest. Quickly throw broccoli into pan and sauté for one minute, then add mushrooms. Add 3 tablespoons lime juice, 1/2 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and toss. Cover and simmer for 4 or 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Add broccoli and mushrooms and crumbled feta to radiatore in medium saucepan. Add remaining lime juice, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil and toss over a low heat until pasta is hot again and the feta has begun to melt.
- Remove from heat and serve in warm bowls, or chill and enjoy as a pasta salad.

I'm an all around crafty girl and love doing it all myself. Whether it's crocheting myself a cozy cap, building a jewelry organizer, blogging, or cooking a fab meal for friends, I love creating. I don't have a favorite cook book, though I do have favorite TV Chefs, Giada de Laurentiis, Ina Garten, and Jamie Oliver... They all present food in delicious but accessible and simple manners. I appreciate that. In the kitchen I love having fresh herbs, fruits, and vegetables at hand at all times so I can cook whenever the mood strikes me, which is often. I used to bake a lot but now I don't as much which is a shame, maybe one day I'll get back into that.
