The other night I needed a quick and easy solution for dinner, but didn't want any of my normal "go-to" quick meals. So, I looked in my fridge and cupboards and came up with this delicious dish, taking a cue from one of my favorite dishes at Spaghetti Factory - Spaghetti with Browned Butter and Mazithra Cheese. Hope you enjoy!
2-3 Tbsp. butter
1 package pasta (I used Gemelli, but you could use anything), cooked according to package directions
1 1/2 - 2 cups shredded parmesan cheese (Mazithra would be much better if you can find it)
1-2 cups broccoli
Salt and Pepper to taste
Melt butter in a small frying pan and cook until it turns brown. Mix pasta, cheese and broccoli together in a large serving bowl. Pour browned butter over the top and stir until combined. Salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.
This is a very versatile recipe. Change up the pasta or veggie with what you have on hand. Would be great topped with grilled chicken.

This is so yummy! It's kind of similar to the recipe I posted a while back, but it includes lots of garlic. But I bet either would be tasty with asparagus or even zucchini.
This is just like "Noodles and Co. " buttered noodles. They also put a dash of Basil on top- sooo yummy!
I didn't know people were still posting on here! I need to get on this again. Thanks everyone!
