Broccoli Rabe Casserole |
This is a North-American Holiday; one that rings true to family, friends, good food, and shopping!
Tradition doesn't have to mean "stuck in a rut." So often we make the same Thanksgiving dinner over and over again. This week, I am mixing it up; From the seasoning on the turkey to the sides.
Green Bean Casserole is traditional. Do not get me wrong. I am not a food snob, as you know. I LOVE the traditional green bean casserole. In fact, as a kid who actually ate ALL of her veggies, I would gobble up two or three servings.
Have you ever thought about making Broccoli Rabe Casserole?
Fresh rapini, sauteed in olive oil with nutmeg, baked in a quick cooking casserole with cheese and milk and crispy French Fried onions. Yum!
Here is tonight's Thanksgiving makeover recipe. It is something a little different, and perhaps, this dish will become your new holiday tradition.

1 bunch Broccoli Rabe, chopped and steamed
