ZITI WITH SAUSAGE, SWEET CORN, BROCCOLI AND TOMATOES
When your body craves vegetables, but your mind craves pasta and meat, this 30-minute pasta dish is a happy compromise. It's loaded with fresh cherry tomatoes, corn and broccoli, and the Italian sausage (hot or sweet) adds flavor and heft. Whatever you do, don't feel wed to the recipe. Use cauliflower in the place of broccoli, chicken sausage instead of pork, chopped plum tomatoes instead of cherry. It's the kind of recipe that can be a little different (in a good way) every time you make it depending on what's in your vegetable drawer or C.S.A. box. Also, don't forget taste and season well with salt and pepper as you go. The vegetables need a little seasoning to stand up to the assertive flavors of the sausage and garlic.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage; cook, breaking up the meat into 1/2-inch pieces, until most of the fat has rendered from the sausage and the pieces are brown and crunchy, but not burnt, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- In the boiling water, add pasta and cook until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water and drain.
- While the pasta is cooking, separate the broccoli flowerets from the stalks and cut the flowerets into 1-inch pieces. Peel the fibrous skin from the exterior of the broccoli stalks and cut the stalks into 1-inch pieces. Add the broccoli to the sausage and mix well. Then stir in the garlic, reduce the heat to low, cover and cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes.
- Add the reserved pasta cooking water to the sausage and broccoli mixture with the corn, tomatoes and the remaining three tablespoons of oil. Season generously with salt, pepper and red pepper flakes (if desired), to taste. Cover, bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute.
- In a large serving bowl or in the pasta pot, combine the drained pasta with the sausage and vegetables, tossing the mixture together well. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 4-quart rectangular baking dish with nonstick spray. Combine mozzarella and Italian blend cheeses in a bowl and place in the refrigerator.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add ziti and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.
- At the same time, heat 3 tablespoons oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add sausage and break up into morsels. Sprinkle baking soda onto sausage, then add onion and garlic. Cook and stir, continuing to break up any clumps as it cooks, until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour off and discard any grease.
- Add pasta sauce, olives, fennel seeds, Italian seasoning, anchovy paste, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Add up to 3 tablespoons more oil if desired, and continue stirring until mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring regularly, until thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in ziti.
- Spread 1/2 of the sauced ziti into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle 1/2 of the shredded cheese mixture evenly on top. Spoon or ladle the rest of the ziti evenly on top without disturbing the layers underneath; it's okay to have some ziti partially exposed as they will brown handsomely and deliciously as they bake. Sprinkle remaining shredded cheese mixture on top and sprinkle Parmesan across the surface.
- Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until bubbly, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 15 minutes before serving.
