Pasta with Broccoli and Spicy Sausage

This is a quick and easy meal, perfect for one of those crazy busy nights. The flavors are absolutely wonderful! Enjoy!

Ingredients:

-1 lb bulk spicy pork sausage

-1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

-1 tsp salt

-1/2 tsp pepper

-1 lb broccoli florets

-4 cups chicken broth

-1 lb pasta (we like garden rotini, but any small pasta works)

-1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Directions:

Coat a large saucepan (a wok works great for this) with cooking spray. Add the sausage. Cook and crumble as you go until nicely browned. Add the pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Give it a good stir. Add the broccoli and mix well.

Stir in the broth and pasta. Mix very well and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cook for 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Remove from stove, sprinkle with the cheese, give it one last good stir, and serve. Enjoy!
