Pasta Luce Linguine with Buttery Cauliflower

Serving Size:  4-6

Ingredients:

1 lb. Pappardelle’s Plain Pasta Luce Linguine
1 head of cauliflower, cut into small bites
1/2 stick of butter (4 tablespoons)
2 teaspoons coarse mustard
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup Italian parsley, chopped
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions: 

  1. In the same pot that you will cook your pasta, bring at least six quarts of salted water to a boil. Add cauliflower and cook for 3-4 minutes.
  2. Scoop cauliflower out and place in a large bowl. Add butter, parsley, mustard, red pepper flakes and garlic. If the butter doesn’t melt with the heat of the cauliflower, warm in microwave for 1-2 minutes.
  3. Add pasta to the salted boiling water. Cook about 14 minutes (or until al dente). Drain and add to the cauliflower. Stir to mix well.
