Ingredients
  

  • 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 lb frozen broccoli florets
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes
  • 8 oz bowtie pasta
  • 1 lemon, juiced and zested
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 oz feta cheese, crumbled

Instructions
 

  • Toast walnuts in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove to a bowl.
  • Add olive oil and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add frozen broccoli and sauté for 2 minutes. Remove broccoli to the bowl with walnuts.
  • Add bowtie pasta, vegetable broth, sun-dried tomatoes, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Stir, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 7-10 minutes until pasta is tender and broth is absorbed. Stir occasionally.
  • While pasta simmers, zest the lemon. Once pasta is cooked, return broccoli and walnuts to the skillet. Stir to combine. Top with crumbled feta and lemon zest. Serve immediately.
