This cheese and broccoli pasta is like the beloved Pasta 'N Sauce from the packet, but infinitely better! A one-pot wonder, it comes together in less than 30 minutes, making it perfect for busy weeknights. Start by sautéing fresh garlic and onion in a large pot, then add your choice of pasta and just enough vegetable broth to cook it all together. Toss in vibrant broccoli florets, letting them steam as the pasta cooks. Once the pasta is al dente, stir in a generous amount of your favourite cheese—cheddar or mozzarella work wonderfully—until it melts into a creamy sauce. For added flavour, sprinkle in some black pepper and a pinch of nutmeg. This dish is not only quick and easy but also incredibly comforting, delivering a delightful blend of cheesy goodness and nutritious broccoli in every bite. It's a meal the whole family will love!
