→ Liquids
05 - 4 cups vegetable broth or water
06 - 1/2 cup whole milk or plant-based milk

08 - 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

# How To Make:
01 - Heat olive oil in a large, wide pot or deep sauté pan over medium heat. Add garlic and onion, sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant and translucent, but not browned.
02 - Add dried pasta, broccoli florets, vegetable broth, and milk to the pot. Stir to combine and bring to a boil.
03 - Reduce heat to a simmer. Cook uncovered, stirring often to prevent sticking, for 10–12 minutes, or until pasta is al dente and most of the liquid has reduced to a silky sauce.
04 - Stir in lemon zest and juice, Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Adjust seasoning to taste.
05 - Remove from heat and let stand 2–3 minutes for the sauce to thicken slightly.
06 - Serve hot, garnished with extra Parmesan and fresh herbs if desired.
