Amazing. So simple yet so flavorful and delicious. My three kids husband and I all loved it. Didn't change a thing.

1/2 the pasta, flourettes of the broccoli, no stem, double the red pepper, 1/4 cup cheese before grating, double the garlic, 4 slices bacon, crisp, crunbled, add a drizzle of olive oil, and some dipping spices. Toss. Wife wants it again tomorrow.

This is a pretty good basic recipe. I was glad to find it and enjoyed it. But it is not very flavorful to me. I was happy to have some left overs, so I am going to add a bit more olive oil and some sun dried tomato pesto to it. Perhaps I didn't add enough pepper... and maybe I overcooked the broccoli.

We really liked the dish a lot! I would suggest sauteing for a while - until the broccoli starts to break up into smaller pieces (about 25-30min at low -- keep an eye on it and stir). Also, cut the peppers VERY thin (Julie-anne style), this way the sweet flavor is shared throughout the entire dish. We loved the mix of flavors!!

A good combination of veggies and an excellent side with sweet and sour meatballs. I omitted the parmesan, but if I was eating this as a light entree, I'd certainly use it.

SIX YEAR OLD BOY ATE IT ALL!!! Changed a few things, so can't give it a 5, as I didn't make it exact. Added cheddar instead of Parm... omitted butter & garlic salt. Added 3 twists of sea salt. Topped it with crushed seasoned garlic croutons & extra cheddar. EXCELLENT!!!!!

Molle888 - Great go to recipe when you want something light and fast! Agreed there is not enough "sauce" for a pound of pasta. I also add 1/2 red pepper flakes to kick it up. I do substitute chicken broth/white wine for the veggie broth. I've even thrown in grill boneless chicken breast at the end for additional protein. Try it cold with cubes of mozzerella cheese and grape tomatoes for a side dish!

I used only 8 ounces of pasta, as another reviewer suggested, but it still turned out dry. I added crushed red peppers to zip up the flavor a little bit, but it really needed more moisture. If I make this again, I will add some liquid or more olive oil.

We cooked some cut up chicken and mixed it with the pasta and veggies. Good, but a little dry.

I found this dish under the side dish area, and it suprises me that a few people think it's meant to be a main dish. I did make a few changes to the recipe, I used spaghetti noodles, and added in yellow squash and some fire roasted tomato cabernet marinara sauce. It was very good and simple to make.

i love that this is a really easy recipe. the brocolli in the microwave saved time & i didn't have to wash up another pot. i used spinach instead of bell peppers though just because i love spinach & it came out really good.

A very nice recipe. My husband has some diet restrictions (low fat and low acid)so we have a hard time having pasta because of the amounts tomato or high fat content. This dish was a nice treat. I used this as a side dish and scaled down to 2 servings. Personally, I think 6 minutes is way too long to cook the broccoli. I put it in for 2 minutes so it stayed mostly crunchy.

Nothing too special.. I didn't add peppers because my mother is allergic to them; the linguini with the brocolli was too boring. There should have definetly been some sauce in there. Meatball sauce, perhaps. Otherwise, its a filler and VERY QUICK!

This was very good! I didn't give it 5 starts because there just wasn't anything too special about it. I cut up some chicken breast and sauteed it with the peppers and used whole wheat linguine - yum!

I added lots of other veggies and a can of diced tomatos, but this recipe for me was a very good base recipe and very healthy.
