Sneaky Broccoli and White Pasta Recipe for Kids #vegetarian #wholefood

September 17, 2012 By Kristi

I’m sharing a fantastic Pasta Bianco this week for This Week’s Cravings. Filled with cauliflower and chickpea puree, this sneaky “Alfredo” pasta is a  great way for kids who love white sauce and butter sauce on their pasta to eat more veggies and protein! And, bonus, it’s delicious! I adapted this recipe from Campbell’s Kitchen.

 

Sneaky Broccoli and White Pasta

Ingredients

1 pound penne noodles (or any small noodle)

1 cup cauliflower puree

1 cup chickpea puree

1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup milk

4 cups broccoli florets

salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup Parmesan cheese

Method

Boil noodles, dropping raw broccoli in with about 5 minutes left.
Place noodles and broccoli into a baking dish. Mix remaining ingredients and pour over noodles & broccoli. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

The Results

So simple and so delicious. We absolutely loved this dish, it’s a definite repeat.
