SICILIAN PASTA AND BROCCOLI
This is a simple dish my grandmother made for me when I was a child. Now I make it for my daughter, Xea, and she loves it. As the broccoli takes on a toasty brown color, it develops a delicious nutty flavor that even picky kids will like.

Steps:
- Heat the water for your pasta while you prepare the broccoli.
- In a shallow, 10-inch saute pot, heat the 1 cup olive oil over medium-high heat (see Cook's Note). Add the broccoli to the oil and season it with salt. Saute the broccoli for about 4 minutes, or until it takes on a toasty color. The broccoli will absorb a lot of the oil, so if you find your pot getting dry, just add a little more oil to it. Throw in the garlic and cook for about another minute, until it's slightly brown. Don't burn the garlic! Take the broccoli off the heat and set it aside.
- Prepare the penne according to the package directions. Drain the pasta and toss it in the pot with the broccoli, garlic, and olive oil. If the mixture seems dry, add a little more oil.
- Toss in the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, stir, and garnish with the parsley.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Prep & slice broccoli, peppers and onions. Heat olive oil in skillet. Stir fry broccoli for 2 minutes, add peppers and onion. Season with first set of spices listed. Continue cooking another 2-3 minutes until veggies are crip tender. Set aside. Mix together the cream cheese, parmesan cheese and oregano, basil, garlic pdr, seasoning salt & pepper. Set aside.
- Split sub rolls open and cut provolone slices in 1/2. Place 2 halves on each side of roll (2 slices per sammie) Lay 3 slices of roast beef over provolone. Spread about 2 Tablespoons of cream cheese mixture lengthwise in the middle of the beef. Top with veggie mixture divided between the 4 sammies. Sprinkle each one with the cheese blend. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes until hot and cheese is melted. Broil for the last minute to get the cheese bubbly & a bit browned.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for fresh, flavorful broccoli, tender beef, and a good quality hoagie roll.
- Don't overcook the beef. It should be cooked through but still slightly pink in the center.
- Roast the broccoli until it is tender but still has a slight crunch.
- Use a flavorful cheese that will melt well, such as provolone, mozzarella, or cheddar.
- Serve the sandwiches immediately after they are assembled so that the bread is still crispy and the cheese is melted.
