I found this recipe in my "recipe box" on Epicurious.com when I was looking around today and thought of you!

Broccoli Rabe with Garlic and Pecorino Romano

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
5 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped

Thanks Meg. I've never had Broccoli Rabe. As a matter of fact I've never seen it in any of the stores here and believe me, I take my time browsing through everything they have in the produce aisle.
Don't wait too long to tell someone you love them.

Sometimes they call it Chinese Broccoli, Rapini or just Raab. It's hard to find around here too. I usually end up substituting Broccolini. Most typically I find it called Chinese Broccoli. Remember that the leaves are edible too! They taste like greens to me. I love em!

It sounds really good. I will have to make that this summer. Sounds perfect paired with a grilled, marinated meat. I love that kind of stuff.

Sounds great! I'm lucky enough to get it year round here. It's a favourite in pasta with sausage.
Practice safe lunch. Use a condiment.
