1 1/2 boxes Barilla mostacioli
1 1/2 heads broccoli
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon ginger (optional)
1/2 cup olive or canola oil

Start by boiling water in a large pot. Once water has boiled, pour in the mostacioli noodles. Bring noodles to a simmer for about ten minutes or until noodles are soft and tender.

While the noodles are simmering, add the olive oil then prepare the broccoli in a separate pot.

Heat both the noodles and broccoli on medium high. When both are done, drain the noodles along with all of the olive oil that was added to the water (the oil was just to give it flavor).

Remove from burner and mix the broccoli and mostacioli in the pot. Add the garlic, ginger and butter to the mixture.

Return pot to stove and heat over low heat for about five minutes. Serve.

Enjoy!
