Mama Mancini’s Broccoli Rabe with Cannellini Beans

I can’t begin to tell you how absolutely delicious this recipe is, and it comes together in one pot – who does it love that! To make it even easier we are using our Mama Mancini’s Traditional Italian Tomato Sauce.

Ingredients

  • The leaves of one head of broccoli rabe
  • 1-can of Cannellini beans, rinsed (10-12 oz can)
  • 4-garlic cloves sliced
  • 1-24 oz Jar of MAMA MANCINI’S traditional tomato sauce
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • 1/2-tsp red chili flakes
  • Water
  • Day old Italian bread
  • Freshly grated pecorino Romano cheese

Directions

1

Add 1/4 cup olive oil, garlic and chili flakes to a large pot. Heat to low and allow the garlic to infuse the oil.

2

When the oil begins to turn golden, add the Mama Mancini’s Sauce. Rinse the jar with 1/2 cup of water and add that to the pot.

3

Bring this to a boil and let this cook together for 5 minutes.

4

Add the Cannellini beans, 1 tsp salt, broccoli rabe leaves to the pot. Cover the pot and turn the heat down to low.

5

After 5 minutes, fold everything together. Keep on low heat, uncovered.

6

Fold together a couple of times for 10 more minutes, and then remove from heat.

7

Put some day-old bread pieces in a bowl and top with the broccoli rabe and beans. Finish with a nice drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and grated cheese.

Enjoy! ❤️ Dan Mancini
