LOOKS LIKE BROCCOLI.... BROCCOLI RABE

Trim off the bottom, tough stems of the broccoli rabe, wash well. Slice
stems into 1/2inch pieces and saute with whole peeled garlic cloves in
olive oil. After 5 minutes add florets, saute until slightly tender, add a
pinch of Italian red pepper and serve over pasta.
