Broccoli Spaghetti

7 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 454 g whole wheat spaghetti, cooked according to package directions (*will need to add broccoli to cooking pasta ~ see below* )
  • 4 slices lean bacon
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 2 minced garlic cloves
  • 700 ml spaghetti sauce (of your choice)
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (fresh is best!)

Directions

  1. 1
    In a large pan, cook bacon slices till crisp, drain and then crumble. (I find that if I cut the bacon up into small pieces prior to cooking, then you don't have to worry about crumbling hot bacon.).
  2. 2
    Return bacon to pan after crumbling, and add onion and garlic.
  3. 3
    Cook over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes.
  4. 4
    Stir in spaghetti sauce and heat to boiling. Continue to cook for another 5 minutes.
  5. 5
    Add broccoli florets to spaghetti noodles for the last 2 minutes of cooking time. Drain pasta and broccoli. Toss well with the sauce, and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
