GLUTEN-FREE SPAGHETTI WITH BABY BROCCOLI, MUSHROOMS AND WALNUTS
This week I was really into adding nuts to many of my pasta dishes. They contribute substantial "meaty" texture and wonderful flavor. Baby broccoli is more elegant than regular broccoli, with long wispy florets and thin stems.

Steps:
- Begin heating a large pot of water. Trim the very bottoms away from baby broccoli and slice stalks. Keep sliced stalks and florets separate. Fill a bowl with cold water.
- When the water comes to a boil add salt to taste, drop in broccoli stalks and set the timer for 4 minutes. After 2 minutes add florets and blanch for 2 minutes. Using a Chinese skimmer, a strainer or a slotted spoon, transfer all of the baby broccoli to the cold water, then drain. Set aside in a bowl.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet or a wide, heavy saucepan and add mushrooms. Don't stir for 30 seconds to a minute so that mushrooms sear, then stir and cook, stirring often, until they have begun to soften and sweat, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute, until garlic is fragrant, and add thyme, walnuts and salt and pepper to taste. Continue to cook until mushrooms are tender, fragrant and juicy, another 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in broccoli and parsley, add salt and pepper to taste, and cook, stirring, for another minute. Remove from heat, taste and adjust seasoning. Keep warm.
- Bring water in pot back to a boil and add pasta. Cook al dente, using timing instructions on the package as a guide but checking pasta a minute before the time indicated is up. When pasta is ready, use a ladle to transfer 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water to pan with the broccoli and mushrooms. Drain pasta and toss at once with broccoli and mushroom mixture and the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Serve hot, passing Parmesan at the table.
SPAGHETTI WITH BROCCOLI AND MUSHROOMS
This spaghetti dish is very easy to prepare and you can also substitute other types of pasta for a change. I have also used half broccoli and half spinach for a nice change. Crusty French bread and a garden salad make this a delicious meal.

Tips:
- Choose the right spaghetti. Gluten-free spaghetti is available in a variety of shapes and sizes, so choose one that you like and that will hold up well to the sauce.
- Cook the spaghetti al dente. This means that it should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the vegetables. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Add the vegetables to the pan in order of their cooking time. This will ensure that they are all cooked through but still retain their texture.
- Season the vegetables with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the cooked spaghetti to the pan with the vegetables and sauce. Stir to combine.
- Garnish with chopped walnuts and grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.

This gluten-free spaghetti with baby broccoli, mushrooms, and walnuts is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner.
