Add green onions and sauté 5 minutes. Add oregano, basil, salt, peppers, garlic and tomatoes. Cover and simmer 10 minutes. Add beans. Cover and simmer an additional 5 minutes. Add broccoli. Simmer 2 minutes or until bright green. Here's a great recipe I found on this web site: http://www.fruitsandveggiesmorematters.org/?page_id=34 Combine bean mixture, pasta and olives in a large bowl. Toss well. Sprinkle feta cheese over the top. Serve warm or at room temperature. Each serving provides: An excellent source of Vitamin C and a good source of Vitamin A, folate and fiber.
