Directions

Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli and cook, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain and run under cold running water, then drain again.

Place the broccoli, basil, cheese, walnuts, 1/2 teaspoon salt, red pepper flakes and garlic in a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Add the broth and oil and process until smooth.

Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and transfer the fettuccine to a large bowl. Add the pesto, sun-dried tomatoes and lemon zest and toss to coat well.

    This was very good. I did omit the sun-dried tomatoes since my family & I are not a big fan of those and added cherry tomatoes instead. I think next time I'd try substituting parmigiano reggiano cheese for the pecorino to lower the sodium content. This one is definitely a keeper & if you have kids that will not eat broccoli, this is a great way to hide it in their food!

    Really nice blend of flavors with the hot pepper, lemon zest and sun dried tomatoes- the broccoli pesto itself is very good but these additions really made a difference. I subbed pine nuts for walnuts.
