SAUSAGE, ESCAROLE AND WHITE BEAN RAGOUT



Sausage, Escarole and White Bean Ragout image

Flavorful sausage and bold escarole are filling additions to this French-accented stew from Dec 2006 "Cooking Light." Super easy to make. Substitute mustard greens to mimic the bitter flavor of escarole, or use spinach for milder flavor (I found spinach too bland and think escarole gives just the right punch). Serve with a crusty baguette or rolls.
