A few pantry & frozen staples allow this flavorful dinner to come together in just 25 minutes. And the best part is, it’s full of healthy hearty ingredients.

Broccoli, sun dried tomatoes, & walnuts carry big health advantages. Providing us with a variety of essential vitamins & minerals, along with powerful antioxidants. Not to mention these superfoods have also been shown to reduce inflammation in the body & promote a healthy digestive system

Combining these nutritious ingredients with satisfying pasta creates an appetizing well balanced meal. Feel free to choose any short pasta shape for this recipe. We used penne; but rotini, bowtie, fusilli, ziti, etc will do the trick. Be sure to pick out a whole wheat version as this will yield more nutrients, minerals, & fiber compared to it’s refined counterpart.
