This tasty pasta with garlic, onions, broccoli rabe, and Parmesan cheese is cooked “risotto style” in chicken broth, which adds flavor and gives the dish a velvety texture. Broccoli rabe adds a pungent yet sweet flavor and is chock-full of vitamins—literally from A to zinc. Don’t be alarmed by the fat content of this dish—it comes mostly from heart-healthy olive oil, which is rich in nutrients known as polyphenols that have been found to help lower LDL cholesterol, a major risk factor for heart disease. For dessert, have a small slice of light Chocolate Marble Cheesecake.
