Sun-dried tomatoes and broccoli rabe quick bread
Sun-dried tomatoes and broccoli rabe quick bread is a rustic savory recipe in the shape of a poundcake. It is a really easy recipe and it is prepared simply by mixing dry ingredients with the wet ones.
It is an fast and, above all, anti-waste recipe because to give more flavor to this bread I used the oil in which the sun-dried tomatoes are stored. This made it very fragrant and simply delicious.
You can use it as a homemade bread and accompany it with your favorite seasonal cheese. Or as a savory recipe to be served together with vegetable stews such as Italian ciambotta or caponata. It is perfect as a dinner saver accompanied by cream cheese and a nice salad! It is also an excellent idea for parties and buffets as well as for trips and picnics.
