Default Broccoli-Zucchini Pasta

I've made this twice now. Each time equally delicious; each time with a
different type of cheese. The first time I grated Romano because I didn't
have Parm and it was the closest thing on hand. This time I used grated
white cheddar. Totally different cheeses, equally great taste.

1 head broccoli, separated into florets*
8 oz. dried ziti pasta**
5 cloves fresh garlic, sliced
1 zucchini, cut into 1/2" cubes
1/4 c. olive oil
1 tsp. dried oregano
salt & pepper to taste
1/4 c. butter
1/2 c. grated Parmesan

Steam broccoli (*I used frozen florets) until just tender; set aside.
Meanwhile cook the pasta (**I used penne; any medium sized tubular pasta
will work). Drain the pasta and return to the pan.

Make the sauce by stir-frying garlic and zucchini in oil until zucchini is
just tender. Stir in oregano, salt & pepper. Whisk butter into the sauce,
then add the broccoli and stir well. Pour this mixture over the pasta with
the grated cheese until the cheese is well melted.
