  6. Add broth, remaining olive oil, and roasted garlic.
  7. Bring mixture to simmer, stirring occasionally.
  8. Add radicchio, collards, cauliflower, and basil and stir to combine.

  12. Add 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese and crushed red pepper; toss to coat.
  13. Season pasta with salt and pepper, and serve with extra Parmesan cheese on the side.
