Cavatelli and broccoli over pasta is a delicious flavor packed recipe. This Italian pasta is light in flavor and texture made with Ricotta cheese. You can find the homemade recipe here.
We make cavatelli often.
They're really easy to make from scratch.
You can however buy them frozen if your in a hurry.
These are great with with sauteed broccoli and garlic.
You can also make them using Italian tomato meat sauce.
Either way these are a big hit here in my household.
My whole family just loves them. We make them we flour, ricotta and some other ingredients.
Over the years this is a nice change of pace using the broccoli version, nice and light.
The broccoli really compliments the taste of this light pasta dish.
Cavatelli float to the top of the boiling water when they are cooked.
Make sure you wait for that tip so they come out perfect!
I have tried many other greens with this to include broccoli rabe and also spinach both which were sauteed in olive oil, red pepper flakes and garlic.
It enhances the flavors to these greens and gives it just the right amount of spice with the pasta.
We use fresh pasta made from scratch, however you can find it in the frozen food sections (or dry pasta in which I do not recommend.)
The soft homemade or frozen are the best.
