Angel Hair with Lemon & Broccoli
INGREDIENTS
- 2 packages Palmini Angel Hair
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 heaping tbsp pine nuts, toasted
- 3 to 4 garlic cloves, minced (can sub around 1/2 to 3/4 tsp garlic granules, to taste)
- ½ cup vegetable broth
- 2 cups steamed broccoli florets, cut small
- Juice of 1 to 1.5 lemons, to taste
- 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
- ½ to ¾ tsp kosher salt, to taste
- ½ tsp pepper
- Red chili flakes (optional)
- 1/3 cup coarsely chopped kalamata olives
- 2 to 3 tbsp capers, to taste
- 15 sun-dried tomatoes (marinated type), drained and finely chopped
- 3 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
- ½ tsp dried parsley
INSTRUCTIONS
- Steam the broccoli until tender, but still bright green. Meanwhile, preheat a large pan over medium heat, while you finely chop the onion. Add onion to pan with the oil, and cook.
- Meanwhile, toast the pine nuts in a dry pan. You can use a small skillet or saucepan over medium heat, tossing until they start to get a light golden brown. Set aside.
- When the onions get translucent and softened, around 5 min, add the garlic and cook another min. Add the vegetable broth and allow it to gently bubble as the onions continue to cook for a few min while you drain, rinse, and pat dry the noodles, as well as chop the olives, sun-dried tomatoes and parsley.
- Lastly, add all the remaining ingredients other than the toasted pine nuts to the pan (including the steamed broccoli florets) and gently cook together for a few minutes (start with juice of 1 lemon and add more if desired). Serve and top with pine nuts.

This is VERY good and forgiving if you’re out of something. (Capers, sundried tomatoes.)
