This is a family favorite. Make sure to experiment with the amount of red pepper, so it packs just the right amount of “heat” for you. We recommend you go light on the red pepper. But, have the red pepper shaker handy at the dinner table for those who like it hot, hot, hot! This spaghetti broccoli agleo recipe is good any time of the year. And, it is easy on the budget, too.
Recipe Tip: Cook the spaghetti “al dente”. Under-cook the broccoli, too. It tastes better if the broccoli is a little crunchy.
