Creamy Veggie Pasta

This pasta is protein-packed and veggie-loaded. Perfect for when you're looking for healthy comfort food, or a meat-free dinner.

I used Banza pasta, which is pasta made from chickpeas and pea protein. I order it from Thrive Market, like most of my dry goods. I think it's super tasty, but use whatever pasta you like!

8-ounce box Banza rotinis or penne

2 heads broccoli, chopped

1 bunch greens (kale, Swiss chard, spinach, etc), chopped

2 cloves garlic, diced
