Can healthy taste good?
I think so. And after all these years I stumbled on doing something simple with broccoli that sure tickled my taste buds. And I mean, how simple is this?
Ingredients:
I used 5 heads of broccoli,
1 pound of shallots
a dozen large mushrooms
3-4 tablespoons of olive oil
garlic powder
black pepper
And I made enough to last over several meals with healthy helpings!
Directions:
1. Slice the shallots into thin slices.
2. Fry the shallot slices in a frying pan with the olive oil, garlic powder and pepper to taste.
3. Chop the broccoli into spear and boil with the mushrooms until you can just stab the broccoli with a fork. The broccoli should not be too hard or mushy, but firm and just right. And the mushrooms should still be firm too.
4. Drain the broccoli and mushrooms and thoroughly toss and mix the caramelized shallots in until the broccoli is coated with the olive oil.
5. Eat.
6. Yum!
I called TPC earlier this evening with this simple recipe and wouldn't you know it? She has been doing this same thing for years. And I only just discovered it. Oh well, but I think if I had more time I might have tried slicing or pressing some actual garlic cloves but I was in a hurry and the garlic powder was a quick solution. Give it a try and see if this doesn't add a spark to your healthy broccoli! Stumble It!
