Vegan Tenderstem Broccoli, Chilli and Garlic Spaghetti is a simple and delicious fusion of extra virgin olive oil, chilli, garlic and Tenderstem broccoli all tossed together with spaghetti and topped with grated hard cheese. Perfect for a quick and easy midweek meal.
Last night I threw this Tenderstem Broccoli Spaghetti together as I had a pack of Tenderstem broccoli that needed using up.
I wanted to make something quick so my first though was pasta! I then remembered a lovely pasta dish I once had in Carluccios many years ago for a mum’s night out, it was just chilli, garlic and pasta from what I remember (this goes back about 8 years).
So with that food memory my Tenderstem Broccoli, Chilli and Garlic Spaghetti dish came to be!
I called my family down for dinner and 3 happy diners announced that the dish was delicious and in no time all our plates were empty.
I’ll definitely be making this vegan Tenderstem Broccoli, Chilli and Garlic Spaghetti again as it only takes 20 minutes to make. Plus hubby didn’t even say where’s the meat!

There is a pub in Porthleven Cornwall which make this exact recipe, I enjoyed it so much I searched it after I ate there this week and found this recipe which I’m sure they followed!
Looking forward to making it from home, thanks for publishing.

Vegetable based pasta dishes are and excellent idea, I think we often get tied up in the belief that pasta dishes have to be meat or fish based
Camilla
Thanks Richard, exactly right!
