  • Meanwhile, place 1 T of butter in a skillet with onions and salt and pepper to taste. Stir fry onions over medium heat until transparent. Add broccoli and mushrooms along with 1/3 cup water. Cook, stirring every now and then for about 5 minutes or until broccoli is tender and water has evaporated.

  1. This is a super easy and very flavorful pasta dish! I used whole wheat fusilli instead of penne, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Thanks for a great recipe!
