FAQs


Can I use frozen broccoli?

Yes, frozen broccoli works well. Add it straight to the pan or pasta water and cook until tender.

Can I make this pasta ahead?

Yes, but it is best eaten fresh. If reheating, add a splash of water, milk or stock to loosen the sauce.

What pasta works best?

Penne, fusilli, rigatoni or shells work well because they hold the cheesy sauce.

Can I make it lower-calorie?

Use reduced-fat cheese, lean chicken breast and extra broccoli to make the dish lighter while keeping it filling.
