Super easy to make. Tossed in some spinach since broccoli Rabe wasn't available.

Didn’t turn out exactly the same as the recipe because I didn’t have access to all the right ingredients but it still tasted amazing! The recipe was really nicely detailed and easy to follow.

Excellent may try with half hot Italian Sausage next time! Used chicken stock instead of water and added a little fresh broccoli!

Couldnt find Broccoli Rabe at the grocery store and substituted Swiss Chard as suggested. It was delicious.

Yummmm — no modifications and it turned out great

The bitterness of the rabe was overpowering for my family. The video was a little hard to follow so I recommend getting a sense of the recipe before getting started to be able to follow along.

Excellent! The spiciness of the mustard greens I used (couldn’t find rabe) paired perfectly with the slight sweetness of the Italian sausage and saltiness of the pecorino Romano. Also very easy to make.

Turned out great. Even my kids enjoyed it! Thanks.

So good. The recipe doesn't track exactly with the video, but mine turned out great. Make sure you use a pretty large skillet to account for all the meat, pasta, and broccoli. Will definitely make this again.
