BROCCOLI PASTA IN A FRESH TOMATO SAUCE
Determined to create my very own, 100% original pasta recipe, which I could call "mine" in all honestly, I made this for lunch today and was so thrilled with its fresh, light taste that I just HAD to post it and let everyone know that I'm not as unimaginative as I though! :) Reserving the pasta water saves some of the nutrients of broccoli from getting wasted.

- Heat oil in a medium saucepan and saute the chopped onion until translucent.
- Add the chopped tomatoes, salt, pepper, and 1/2 cup of the pasta-broccoli water.
- Cover the saucepan and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Uncover, increase the flame to high, and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the most of the water has evaporated.
- Remove from heat and season with basil, parsley and oregano.
