Directions
Combine ricotta cheese and romano cheese. Set aside.
Bring a large stockpot of water to a rolling boil.
Add 1 teaspoon salt, cauliflower and broccoli.
Cover and return to a boil.
Uncover and cook on medium-high until crisp-tender, about 7 minutes.
Remove vegetables with a slotted spoon and reserve liquid for cooking linguine.
Heat olive oil and garlic in a skillet.
When garlic is lightly browned, stir in mushrooms, salt and dried red pepper.
Sauté about 6- 8 minutes. Stir in broccoli and cauliflower and continue cooking 10 minutes.
If it becomes too dry, add some of the reserved liquid.
Bring remaining reserved liquid to a rapid boil, adding water if needed, and add linguine, stirring with a fork to prevent sticking.
Cook about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain.
Reheat vegetable mixture.
Stir in linguine. Top with cheese mixture.
Dust with more grated romano and serve immediately.
