Steps:
- Bring a pot of water to a boil, then add the pasta. Boil until the pasta is al dente (7-10 minutes). Add the frozen broccoli florets to the boiling pasta water, turn off the heat, and let sit for 1-2 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender-crisp. Drain the pasta and broccoli in a colander.
- Transfer the pasta and broccoli back to the pot (with the heat off) or to a bowl and add the butter. Toss until the butter has melted and coated everything. Add the Parmesan, salt, freshly cracked pepper, and red pepper flakes, then toss to coat again. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve immediately.

BOW TIE PASTA WITH BROCCOLI AND BROCCOLI SAUCE
I've gotten 8 year old boys to eat this and ask for seconds. They never knew they were eating broccoli and I didn't tell them. I adore this dish. Normally I cook with olive oil but the butter in this sauce should not be substituted. It will serve 4 as a side dish or 2 as a main course. The original recipe comes from Rozanne Gold, a favorite cookbook author.

Steps:
- Cut the broccoli buds into small florets, leaving as short a stem as possible; set aside; cut the remaining broccoli stems into 1/2" pieces; boil them, covered, in the 1 1/4 cups water, lightly salted, for 15 minutes or until very soft.
- Meanwhile, boil the pasta in salted water until al dente; drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water; return the pasta to the pot and stir until all moisture is evaporated.
- Place the reserved florets into a small pot and steam or boil 5 minutes, retaining the bright green color and a bit of crunch.
- In a food processor, puree the cooked broccoli and its cooking water until very smooth, adding a bit of the reserved pasta water if needed to make a smooth sauce; add the butter and pulse until melted; add salt to taste.
- Pour warm sauce over the pasta and stir gently to combine; plate and sprinkle with drained florets.

Steps:
- Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, then the sausage. Cook, breaking the sausage into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until it is golden brown and no longer pink, about 6 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the sausage to a plate and set aside.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the garlic cloves. Cook for 1 minute.
- Add the pasta, broth, 2 cups of water, oregano, salt, and pepper to the pot and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium or medium low to keep it simmering for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Stir in the broccoli. Cover the pot and let cook until the pasta and broccoli are just tender, about 5 minutes, stirring half-way through.
- Uncover the pot. Add the sun-dried tomatoes, heavy cream, and reserved sausage. Cook until heated through, about 1 minute.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the parmesan cheese and lemon juice. Serve topped with more parmesan cheese and red chili flakes, if you like.
