Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and chop the spinach and broccoli rabe. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Cook the Greens

    Add the spinach and broccoli rabe to the skillet. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the greens are wilted and tender. Season with salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Make the Provolone Cheese Sauce

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes. Gradually add the milk while whisking to avoid lumps. Cook until thickened, then stir in the provolone cheese until melted and smooth.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Pour the provolone cheese sauce over the sautéed greens. Toss gently to combine. Serve warm.
