Creamy Tomato Pasta with Broccoli ?? A simple and cozy pasta with some delicious additions of sun-dried tomatoes and brocc. ?? By janetsmunchmeals⠀

Do you like broccoli in your pasta? It adds great texture and flavor, and of course nourishment! It also reminds me of pasta dishes growing up. ? Is that nostalgic for anyone else? You can also add beans or lentils in here, or even other veggies. My favorites, chickpeas and spinach, would be delicious in here ??⠀
⠀
1/2 lb. pasta⠀
1/2 yellow onion⠀
2 tbsp olive oil⠀
1 tsp kosher salt⠀
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved⠀
3 large garlic cloves⠀
1 medium head broccoli (cut into small florets)⠀
2 tbsp water⠀
1/4 cup tomato paste⠀
1/4 cup (canned) crushed tomatoes⠀
1/4 cup (marinated type) sun-dried tomatoes, sliced and drained⠀
1/2 tsp garlic powder⠀
1/2 tsp dried parsley⠀
7.5 oz. full-fat coconut milk⠀
Black pepper, for serving⠀
⠀
Cook the pasta according to the package directions, in salted water until just al dente. Drain.⠀
⠀
Meanwhile, preheat a large pan on medium heat. Finely chop the onion and add it to the pan with the olive oil and kosher salt. Cook for 5 to 7 min until softened, during which time, halve the tomatoes, mince the garlic, and cut the broccoli.⠀
⠀
Add these to the pan with the 2 tbsp water, stir, cover and cook for 3 to 4 min or until broccoli is just about fork tender. Add in the remaining ingredients, and cooked pasta. Stir, cook together for a couple min until broccoli is tender, then top with black pepper.
