Cashew Alfredo Pasta with Broccoli

I was supposed to do something a bit more complicated tonight, but I wasn't feeling great after walking in the cold. Working from home the second half of tomorrow, so I'll be fancy then.


In the meantime, nothing's easier than pasta in a cashew sauce. Luckily had broccoli and cherry tomatoes on hand to dress it up.
