Healthy Broccoli Rabe With Pine Nuts

By KEM77

Garlicky and nutty broccoli rabe. You can use normal broccoli if you wish, but broccoli rabe is more delicate and more suited for combination with pignoli, in my opnion.

Ingredients

• 6 cups broccoli rabe, rinsed and large stems removed (about 2 bunches)
• 1/2 ounce pine nuts, about 2 tbsp, toasted
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, to taste
• 1/8 teaspoon table salt, to taste
