Broccoli Rabe with Toasted Garlic and Breadcrumbs


Here's a simple recipe for pasta with broccoli rabe, which is so good for you I suspect there is a conspiracy by the always conniving OBL (Ordinary Broccoli Lobby) to keep it so under the radar.

"Broccoli rabe is low in Saturated Fat. It is also a good source of Pantothenic Acid, and a very good source of Dietary Fiber, Protein, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E (Alpha Tocopherol), Vitamin K, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Folate, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Zinc and Manganese." (source: nutritiondata.com)

I would use whole wheat or some other kind of enriched pasta to make it even more crazy healthy.

Check out the video at the end of the article for the recipe.
