Pasta with Broccoli, Lemon, & Breadcrumbs

What to do with an over-abundance of broccoli? This ridiculously simple dish is so good you won’t believe it. Cut the broccoli into pieces, and saute them in olive oil with salt and pepper until slightly browned. Add the juice of one lemon, and when the juice is cooked out add some of the cooking water from some pasta. When the pasta is cooked add it to the broccoli and cook them together. Stir in some fresh breadcrumbs, which will soak up the salty, lemony sauce and coat everything. Garnish with more breadcrumbs — cheese probably wouldn’t hurt, but it seems like overkill.
