Wow this was good! I made the vegan version- used pumfu sausage, didn’t use parm cheese (there are so many delicious flavors in this dish I don’t think you need cheese or cheese like sub). I had a combo of red and yellow onion – carmelizing takes a long time but its worth it.
Unnecessary to pat the cooked broccoli rabe (I consolidated/skipped steps to make it easier).
I used a local trumpet mushroom pasta (the type of pasta we had that cups ingredients like orecchiette).
I only had dry sundried tomatoes so I put them in olive oil an hour or so before using. I didn’t have pine nuts so I used walnuts. Fabulous recipe, thank you!

Oh! Me again, meant to leave a star review. This should have more than 6 ratings. It’s that good and easy.

Amazing recipe. So tasty and delicious. We used pecorino Romano cheese and loved the flavor combination.

I first made this with the broccoli rabe and honestly, for me it was too much work without enough payoff. Now I make it with broccoli and it’s great. I’m vegetarian so I skip any sausage but my husband makes some turkey sausage to have with his. Once everything is prepped and the onions ready, this is an easy meal to prepare and it’s delicious.

In reply to Helen. Hi Helen, I would prep step 1 and 2 in advance and make the rest of the pasta closer to when you're ready to serve it. I like the leftovers if I'm just reheating for myself, but I wouldn't say they're company-worthy.

This was so delicious and will quickly jump into our frequent rotation! Do you think it could all be made ahead and heated? I’d rather have it done prior to company coming but want the end result to be just as tasty! Thank you for the wonderful recipe.
