My favorite way to cook rapini

Very fast, very easy: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Drop in a pound or two of rapini and simmer for a couple of minutes, then pull it all out. Let the water come back to a boil and drop in a pound of whole-wheat pasta.

While that's cooking, add the following to a pot over medium heat, in this order:
Olive oil
Garlic
A sausage, cut up (optional)
The blanched rapini, coarsely chopped
Sundried tomato, coarsely chopped
Pine nuts
Salt and pepper

Cook, stirring occasionally, until rapini is tender.

After pasta has cooked, return to pot and grate several tablespoons of cheese over. Can also add a tablespoon or two of broth or cooking liquid from the rapini. Serve rapini mixture over pasta.
