Pasta with Trees and Sausage Meatballs

This dish is a great no fuss, and extremely quick weeknight dinner.

It is also a great way of introducing broccoli to your little people.

INGREDIENTS (Serves 4 to 6 Little People)

200g Fusilli Pasta

1 Tbsp Oil

1/4 Onion, finely chopped

4 Chicken Sausages, skins removed and chopped into 1cm pieces

4 Broccoli Florets, cut into really small "trees"

2 Tbsps Parmesan Cheese, grated

Salt and Pepper, to season

METHOD

Cook the pasta in a large saucepan of lightly salted boiling water following packet directions or until al dente. Add the broccoli to the pan in the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain and return to the saucepan.

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes or until soft.

Add the sausage "meatballs" and cook for 6 minutes or until browned.

Reduce the heat, add the broccoli and stir to combine.

Add the sausage mixture to the saucepan. Ensure all the juice is added to. Toss to combine.

Season with salt and pepper.

Divide the pasta among serving bowls and sprinkle with parmesan to serve.
