Radicchio and Spaghetti


Ingredients:

1 head of radicchio – sliced
4 cloves of garlic – crushed & chopped
1 small eggplant – cubed
1 can of cannelloni beans - drained
½ red onion – sliced
Olive oil
Red pepper flakes
Romano Cheese
1 lb. of your favorite spaghetti

In a large frying pan heat a few drizzles of olive oil. Add the garlic, onion and eggplant let them turn a little golden.

Add the radicchio and beans and let the radicchio soften a little.

Prepare the spaghetti as directed and then lift it into the pan with the vegetables. Add a few good dashes of red pepper flakes, a few drizzles of olive oil and some grated Romano cheese and toss.

This is a delightfully satisfying meal.

Enjoy with Love,

Catherine

That looks so good to me, but strangely I never buy radicchio for cooking at home.
