12-11…PASTA WITH TURNIP GREENS AND SAUSAGE

I know…it’s Sunday, and I should be making Sunday gravy, but the Turnip greens looked so good at the supermarket yesterday, and being in a veggie/produce mood…I really had no choice.



INGREDIENTS:

Fettucini
Turnip greens, coarsely chopped
Olive oil
Garlic, onion
Sausage, casing removed


PROCESS:

Brown the sausage, remove and set aside. Discard any excess fat, and sauté the garlic and onion in olive oil. Blanch the greens in boiling water for about 4-5 minutes, drain, and add to the pan along with the sausage and cook for 10-15 minutes.

In the meantime cook the pasta in the same water used for the greens.

COMMENTS:

Comfort food…not the typical Sunday pasta, but just as good.
