“You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I’m not hungry enough to eat six.”
Yogi Berra

"Believe it or not, American’s eat 75 acres of pizza a day."
Boyd Matson

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Escarole & Beans

 

Ingredients

1 cup chicken broth
1 large head escarole, well washed and coarsely
2 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
15 oz can cannelloni beans
4 fresh basil leaves, cut up



 

Preparation

In a large saucepan place chicken broth and escarole, bring to a boil
and simmer for an hour. Gently brown the garlic in the oil, then add
cannelloni beans with their liquid and heat thoroughly. Combine with
escarole and let simmer for 10 to 20 minutes. Stir carefully with
wooden spoon. This should have a soupy consistency (add a little
more broth, or water, if necessary). This is excellent with hot
pepper flakes, grated cheese, and hot Italian bread.
