I was craving pasta one night and couldn't find a recipe that looked good.. so i made up my own. Not bad, I think it has nice flavour. You can use fresh or frozen broccoli, but if you use frozen I recommend defrosting in the microwave for a minute or so, just so its not too cold.

500

g penne, cooked to al dente
1

lb hot Italian sausage
2

garlic cloves, chopped
1

small onion, chopped
1

(28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2

cups broccoli
2

teaspoon italian seasoning

DIRECTIONS

Boil pasta in salted water to al dente.
While pasta is boiling, remove casings from sausage and scramble fry with onions and garlic until no longer pink.
Add tomatoes, undrained, and bring to a boil.
Add salt, pepper, basil and Italian seasoning. Boil 1 minute.
Add broccoli and cook until soft.
Continue cooking to desired consistency (I like it a little runnier than most, I like to soak up sauce with bread).
Add half the parmesan cheese, and mix through (optional).
Toss pasta with sauce.
Serve hot and sprinkle with more parmesan, if desired.
