Pasta with broccoli, mushrooms and feta | QUICK VAGAN LUNCH

Pasta with broccoli, mushrooms, and feta is a quick and easy vegan recipe.

Whole-grain pasta is far superior to the white flour variety when it comes to vital substances: Because the shell and germ remain intact, it is high in B vitamins, fiber, and minerals.

And the broccoli boosts the immune system thanks to plenty of vitamin C. Sesame and feta support bones and teeth’ stability with the mineral calcium.

Besides, depending on what you have in the kitchen, you can wonderfully vary the pasta with broccoli, mushrooms, and feta: Instead of broccoli, like cauliflower, zucchini, or a frozen vegetable mix also fit wonderfully.

You can also replace the mushrooms with other varieties such as herb mushrooms or fry pieces of tempeh, chicken, or tofu cubes instead. Instead of pasta, rice, quinoa, couscous, or millet are also delicious.

Also, you can also get creative with the spices. If you don’t have black cumin, use more sesame seeds or replace both with chopped almond kernels.
