Ingredient of the Day

I definitely won't do this everyday, but I thought it could give people some good ideas once in a while.  You don't have to give a recipe unless you want to.

What is your favorite thing to make using broccoli?

Re: Ingredient of the Day

  • I like making pizza with ranch dressing, chicken, broccoli and mozzarella cheese.

  • Right now, it's broccoli salad. 

    Chopped broccoli raw, craisins, sunflower seeds, greek yogurt or mayo, sugar

    YUM!

  • Stir fry, and sometimes I'll bake chicken, then when it's halfway through, put cheese and broccoli soup over the top, then finish baking. Mmmm....yummy!
  • I love to just steam it and put a little roasted garlic and some lemon juice on it!!  YUMMY!

  • Steam it and toss some sea salt on and it's good to go!

  • We usually toss it in a stir fry or add it to a pizza. For a side dish, we use a slight variation of the Ina Garten recipe. (No pine nuts.) It's delicious.
  • i've been on a roasting kick lately - and broccoli is one of my favorite things to roast!

    just set the oven to 400*, drizzle olive oil over it, and sprinkle with parmesan.  its soo yummy!

  • I love broccoli cheese soup.  We also enjoy steamed broccoli with cauliflower, carrots, etc with cheese.

  • I love steamed broccoli with or without cheese.  And I like it mushy (but not too mushy). 

    I also love love love it in stir fry...it's always the bulk of my stir fry since I don't like meat in SF for some reason.

    Was going to say pizza, too.

  • my first thought was white pizza, then roasted with garlic or other seasoning...but both of those were mentioned...

    I really like broccoli, cheese and rice casserole or pierogi  casserole-1 box pierogi, 1 jar alfredo sauce, a cup or so of ham cubes/diced ham, and a box of broccoli pieces...mix it all in a 9x13 pan and bake at 350 for 30 minutes...these are both of my menu when we replace the oven!  I've never actually made the broccoli, cheese and rice myself but my mom did give me my grandmother's recipe at my bridal shower

  • Oooh- I love doing this broccoli and cheese side dish-

    brown a green onion in a teensy bit of veg oil.  Once brown, add a can of cream of mushroom soup and heat.

    Boil a box of frozen broccoli spears in a separate pot and drain.  Add to soup.

    Add fresh grated american cheese (the more the better!).  stir and heat until fully melted.

    Amazeballs.
