Broccoli Rabe and Sausage Soup - Rachael Ray

I found this recipe in Everyday With Rachael Ray magazine. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting this for safe keeping.

• Ready In: 33 mins
• Serves: 4-5

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄4 lbs  sweet Italian sausage
• 1  onion, chopped
• 1  head broccoli rabe, chopped
• 64  ounces chicken broth (8 cups)
• 31  ounces  canned cannellini beans, rinsed

Directions

1. In a large saucepan, cook the sausage, breaking it up, over medium-high heat until browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate; discard all but 1 tablespoon fat from the saucepan.
2. Add the onion to the saucepan and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
3. Stir in the broccoli rabe and chicken broth and bring to a simmer; cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the sausage and beans and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes; season with salt and pepper.
