Macaroni with Escarole & Zucchini




This is one of those meals that I had a little of this and a little of that. No real measurements here. Have fun with it and feel free to change it up a bit and make it your own!


1/2 box macaroni, I love "short" macaroni myself so I used Farfalle
1 28. oz can San Marzano Peeled Tomatoes
Fresh Basil
Locatelli Cheese (Pecorino Romano)
Escarole
Zucchini
Salt/Pepper
Crushed Red Pepper
1 onion
4 cloves of garlic
Chicken Stock...about 1 cup or so
Grilled sweet peppers (optional)
Grilled sausage (optional)

Saute the onion, garlic, salt, pepper and crushed red pepper.  Add in the zucchini and saute about 8 minutes. Stir in the escarole and cook another 5 minutes. Pour in the chicken stock and hand crush the tomatoes yourself as you toss them in. Bring to a boil, add in the rest of the tomato juices and let simmer for a half hour. I stirred in some Locatelli cheese (at least a cup) and some fresh basil at the end. Mix it in with the macaroni, serve, and enjoy!
