Any good Broccoli recipes???

I'm sick of the Garlic and Oil.

TIA

Re: Any good Broccoli recipes???

I steam it and add lemon and grated parm cheese. YUMMY!!

Also, i do it sometimes where i mix it w. garlic powder and balsamic vinegar

Oh, i also tried baking it once. I laid on a baking sheet and sprinkled w/ oil and chopped up cloves of garlic and laid that in pan too.
Bake on 450 for 10 mins

Re: Any good Broccoli recipes???

we LOVE veggies... so we make huge piles at once... This is our mid-week recipe (low effort!)

cut up the broc and a head of cauliflower into bite-sized pieces. Put in a microwave safe bowl with about 3 cups of water and microwave on high for about 16 min, stirring 1/2 way through... when it's cooked through, drain and set aside.

Sauce:
1 med onion-diced
2/3 bag of light shredded cheese (cheddar/jack combo, or all cheddar)
about 2T butter
about 3T flour
2 cups milk
salt & pepper to taste

Melt butter in pan. Sautee onion until clear. Add flour and stir for a couple min. Add milk, S&P. Bring to a simmer, and then add in cheese. Stir until cheese has melted. toss broc and caul in sauce and eat

tres delish!

This was from Food Network, I used half the butter.

Broccoli with Infused Butter
Recipe courtesy Ingrid Hoffman

4 cups broccoli florets washed
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup fresh-squeezed orange juice, about 2 large navel oranges
Orange zest

Set up a steamer. Steam the broccoli florets for 3 to 5 minutes, until just slightly tender.
In a separate small saucepan, heat the orange juice over medium-high heat. Reduce to 1/4 cup. Remove juice from heat and add butter, stirring to melt and combine thoroughly.

Pour over the blanched broccoli and toss. Serve with the orange zest over the final served dish.
