How I Use Precut Broccoli
The two ways I serve broccoli most often are steamed and roasted.
I love to put broccoli ina microwave-safe containerwith a little water and salt to steam in the microwave.
I makesteamed broccoliat least once a week to go with easy pasta dinners or alongside baked potatoes.
Precut broccoli is also perfect for one of my familys current favorite one-pan dinners:shortcut beef and broccoli.
A few times a year, I makebroccoli cheddar soup for dinnerwith extras for the freezer.
Our extended family also loves abroccoli cheddar casseroleI make for the holidays.
And for all of those times, I reach for precut broccoli.
