Cummulative Rating

Servings
Makes 4-6 servings.
Difficulty
Easy
Ingredients

2 teaspoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups gf penne pasta
3 cups broccoli florets (cut into 1-inch pieces)
2 cups gf spaghetti sauce (such as Muir Glen Organic)
1 cup fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into small pieces
3/4 cup ricotta cheese
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil
1 Tablespoon fresh oregano, chopped
4 Tablespoons Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, grated
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Place the garlic and oil in a small skillet and heat over medium heat for about 1 minute or until the garlic is fragrant but not browned. Remove from heat and set aside. Cook the penne in a large pot of salted boiling water. During the last minute of cooking time add the broccoli. Drain.

Meanwhile, mix the gf spaghetti sauce, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, ricotta, basil and 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese along with the reserved sauteed garlic in a large bowl. Add the broccoli and penne. Toss to coat. Adjust seasonings to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Transfer the pasta to a 11x7 inch baking dish. Scatter the remaining mozzarella over the top along with the remaining 2 tablespoons of parmesan cheese. Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until the cheese has melted and is bubbly. Remove from the oven and let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Tastes like a lasagna without all the fuss of the lasagna noodles and layering. We loved it in our house!
