    Yellow onion
    Garlic
    Whole peeled plum tomatoes, canned
    White beans (navy, great Northern, or cannellini), canned
    Belgian endives
    Radicchio
    Freshly ground black pepper
1 head escarole, leaves separated, washed, and torn into pieces
Salt
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
8 Applegate Farms Organic Italian Sausages
cut crosswise into 1"-thick pieces
1 small yellow onion, peeled and chopped
1 clove garlic, peeled and chopped
1 28-ounce can whole peeled plum tomatoes
1 15.5-ounce can white beans, such as navy, great Northern, or cannellini, drained
2 heads Belgian endive or 1 small head radicchio, rinsed, trimmed, and quartered
Freshly ground black pepper

 

Blanch the escarole in a large skillet of boiling salted water over medium-high heat until just wilted, about 30 seconds. Drain and set the greens aside. Wipe the skillet dry, add the oil, and heat over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and cook until browned all over, about 5 minutes. Add the onions and garlic and cook until the onions are soft, 2–3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, crushing them with your hand as you add them to the skillet, then add the canning juices. Add the blanched greens, Belgian endive or radicchio, and the beans. Season to your taste with salt and pepper. Stir well to combine. Cook until the endive or radicchio wilt and the brothy skillet juices thicken slightly, about 5 minutes.

This reminds me of the greens and beans dishes back home in upstate New York. I would recommend not adding the endive or radicchio. The escarole is enough.
