Pasta with Broccoli and Black beans

Inspired by “The Longevity Diet” by Prof. Valter Longo.

I use the San Remo Penne Pulse Pasta (GF made from lentils, chickpeas & borlotti beans) .

This is a one pot recipe. To a pot of salted water, add the chopped up stalks of the broccoli, and bring the water to the boil. Add 125g (half packet of the pasta) to the water and set the timer to 6 minutes. After two minutes add the broccoli florets. After a further two minutes a can of black beans (rinsed).

At the 6 minute mark plate up, adding chilli, garlic, black pepper, some of the cooking water, EVOO, and freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano on top. A meal in about 10 minutes.
