SAUSAGE AND BROCCOLI RABE WITH POLENTA



Sausage and Broccoli Rabe With Polenta image

This is from one of my Food & Wine cookbooks. They recommend serving this with an Italian barbera because it has minimal tannins. Sausage and broccoli sauce freezes and reheats well. You can use either hot or mild Italian sausage. This is also good served over pasta.
