Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Kosher salt
12 ounces bow tie pasta
1 small head broccoli, cut into florets
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, grated
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon dijon or yellow mustard
1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (6 ounces)
Freshly ground pepper
8 mini mozzarella balls (bocconcini), halved
12 cherry tomatoes, halved

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs, then drain and set aside (reserve the pot).
  • Meanwhile, toss the broccoli on a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon olive oil, the parmesan and garlic. Transfer to the oven and roast until the broccoli is slightly charred and the cheese starts browning, about 12 minutes.
  • Melt the butter in the reserved pasta pot over medium heat. Whisk in the flour; cook, whisking, until lightly toasted, about 2 minutes. Add the mustard and milk and cook, whisking occasionally, until thick and creamy, 4 to 5 minutes. Whisk in the cheddar and season with salt and pepper; continue cooking until the cheese is melted, 1 to 2 more minutes. Stir in the pasta until coated and warmed through, about 1 minute.
  • Thread the mozzarella and tomatoes onto 8 small skewers. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Serve with the pasta and broccoli.

This dish was a waste of time and money. It didn't taste good and it was a lot of work to make.

I thought this recipe was too complicated. There are too many steps and ingredients.

This was a very bland dish. I added some garlic and Italian seasoning to give it more flavor.

The bow ties were a bit overcooked, but the broccoli skewers were perfect. Overall, this was a good recipe.

This dish was a bit too cheesy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less cheese.

I'm not a big fan of broccoli, but I loved the way it was prepared in this recipe. The cheese sauce was also very flavorful.
