How do you make Italian sausage stuffe d with broccoli rabe?

While I like the first part of your answer...it is a vegetable and I suggest you PREPARE it one of two ways...blanch it in boiling water for about 2 minutes, then shock it in cold (ice) water to stop the cooking, then saute it in olive oil that has been seasoned by sauteing about 1 teaspoon of minced garlic and some red pepper flakes. Or you can simply trim it and saute it in the oil, the pre-blanch and shock method does usually produce a nicer looking product helping maintain the green color...season with salt and pepper or toss with some pasta...either way is good.

You don't make it. It's a green vegetable you either buy or grow. If you have broccoli rabe, trim the tough stalks and simmer the vegetable in water with a little salt; when it's tender drain and cook gently in butter.

If you make a drastic change in your diet, you may lose weight initially, but it is unhealthy in the long run and you would gain it all back (and sometimes more) once you started eating other foods again.

Also, remember to exercise! The simplest things, such as taking walks and doing aerobics while watching TV can help.

What is meant by broccoli?

Broccoli is a plant of the Cabbage family. It closely resembles cauliflower, which is a different cultivar group of the same species, but broccoli is green rather than white.

The word broccoli comes from the Italian broccolo, meaning shoot or stalk.

Brocolli is thought to have originated from the wild cabbage.

How does broccoli gets its energy?

Plants trap energy from the Sun. Things that eat plants get access to this energy. Raw vegetables have higher minerals and other nutrients. If humans boil, steam, or cook vegetables, much of the nutrients leech into the water used to cook them. So except in soups (which will hold those nutrients), it's important to use some of the boiled liquid either with the serving, or as a basis to make sauces or soups. If you just throw out the water you boiled them in, you'll throw out most of the nutrients. In the body, mastication (chewing) and digestion breaks down the nutrients to give use vitamins, minerals, and energy.

Kids tend to be polarized either enjoying or hating the somewhat pungent flavor, much as they are with broccoli or asparagus.
