Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Add the penne pasta and cook according to package directions, about 10 minutes.

During the last 3 minutes of boiling the pasta, add the broccoli florets to the pot.

Drain the pasta and broccoli well.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the sliced beef sausage for 5 minutes until lightly crispy.

Reduce heat to medium-low, add the drained pasta and broccoli to the skillet.

Stir in the pesto sauce until all ingredients are evenly coated.

Remove from heat, garnish with chopped green onions, and serve immediately.
