Don't pass this one by. It's EASY, cheap and so tasty.
A bunch of broccoli, a can of beans, some pasta and feta.
This couldn't be easier or more perfect for making after work. (Shannon, if you like broccoli, this one's for you.)
I threw some chopped tomatoes and kalamata olives on top.
I think a Sauvignon Blanc would go perfectly.
Mum I see this being a great dinner to take down to the beach this summer... The Sauv will be a must!

Add garlic, salt, ground pepper and 2 ladles full of pasta water. Stir in beans. Cover and steam for about 5 mins.
Please do not overcook the broccoli! Let it remain bright and green!
