It only uses a single pot for minimal kitchen cleanup. Feel free to swap in any produce that you enjoy to make it a truly customized dish.

Ingreadient:

• 8 oz. dry whole wheat rotini pasta
• 6 oz. fresh Broccolini, trimmed, sliced lengthwise, and cut into 1½-inch pieces
• 1 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
