Recipe by ChefBillT "Many children, especially picky eaters, love pasta loaded with plain butter--a dish that clearly earns low marks on the health scale. This great alternative adds fiber and protein with beans, which kids actually love!"

Ingredients

12 ounces penne or fusilli pasta 4 cloves garlic, sliced 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 3 cups broccoli florets 2 cups cauliflower florets 1/2 teaspoon salt 2/3 cup low-sodium vegetable or chicken broth 2 tablespoons butter 1 (15 ounce) can no-salt-added cannellini beans, rinsed and drained 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Instructions

Cook pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water 2 minutes less than directed on package. Drain. Meanwhile, cook garlic in oil in a large lidded pot over medium heat until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add broccoli and cauliflower and cook 1 minute. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt, and cook, covered, 3 minutes. Add broth, butter, beans, pepper, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and cook until beans are warm and sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Add pasta and cook, stirring, until heated through, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with cheese.
