I've had a lazy cooking week or so. Work has been busy and Xander has been sick so I haven't felt very inspired to cook. Lazy meals consisted of raw veggies with dip, an omelette with tomatoes, goat cheese and basil, nachos with fixings. And the worst was when I was so tired that I made popcorn and served it with cheese and apples, not really a meal per se, but it hit the spot. On those nights Ken usually fends for himself and he is pretty good at it.
However, I did manage at least one good meal last week, and it lasted for another night too. Sausage and Rapini is a brilliant combination, and with a little parmesan on top it becomes perfection.
Pasta w/ Sausage and Rapini
Sweet or Spicy Italian Sausage
1 lg. bunch Rapini
1 clove garlic
White wine
Olive oil
Pasta of choice
Cook pasta al dente, drain and set aside. Heat olive oil in large pan add sausage (I remove sausage from casing because I prefer a more crumbled texture, but you can also just chop sausage into chunks) and garlic and cook until cooked through. Add trimmed Rapini, and about 1/2 cup white wine, cover and let simmer until Rapini is cooked, about 5 minutes. Add pasta and toss together. Serve with parmesan.
Enjoy!
