Steps:

In a large saucepan bring water to a boil, covered, over high heat. Add 1 teaspoon salt and penne. Cook 5 minutes, or until pasta is very al dente. Add broccoli. Cook 4 minutes more, or until broccoli is just tender and pasta cooked. Drain. Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high heat until hot. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until pale golden. Add turkey, remaining salt and red pepper. Cook until turkey is no longer pink. Stir in sun-dried tomatoes. Cook 2 minutes more. Add pasta and broccoli to skillet. Drizzle with remaining tablespoon of oil and sprinkle with 1/3 cup of the cheese. Gently toss to combine. Serve pasta with remaining cheese. Tip: Make it even healthier -- choose a whole-grain pasta.
