I have always been a lover of broccoli rabe, having eaten it at my Italian grandmother's house since early childhood. However, I have never really been a sausage fan. Having seen the two ingredients on Italian restaurant menus for quite some time now, I decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad I did. The combination really is very flavorful.
