Bought alot of brocolii yesterday for cheap....

It is very simple. You can steam it, or you can cut it up, and mix with other vegetables, you can also cook it in water, drain the water, and then use a blender or a hand blender, mash it up fine and make a soup. If you have some chicken or turkey stock, onions, maybe sweet or regular potatoes mashed, peppers or what have you, that might work. It is very easy to do. Or you can chop up some of the brocolli and use it in salads or you can grate it and make a brocolli coleslaw. I have not recipes, I do it in my head. WE have this cooking show up here where they mix all sort of weird ingredents - not that brocolli is weird - and make meals out of them.

I like to eat it raw and dip it in Ranch dressing, use it with beef or chicken in a stir fry type of dish, or steam it and add lots of cheddar cheese and milk. I suppose you could also steam it and then freeze it in ziploc bags. That way you have it year round! You're always finding good deals on food, aren't you?

You could steam some of it and just add some oil and maybe garlic or onion. And you could sauté some of it and make like a stir fry dish with it. Broccoli is real good, especially when fresh.

hi maria, Brocolli is quite expensive here you can have a brocolli soup, steam brocolli and dip it with mayonaise, brocolli in garlic or you can have stir fry brocolli and mushroom happy mylotting

Ohh, what a coincidence. I just bought broccoli to cook for dinner too. Did you buy organic broccoli? If you do, just remember not to overcooked it, otherwise all nutrients in it will be gone. Just make sure the broccoli still has the crunchy feeling when u chomp it after you cooked it to ensure you did not overcook it. My style of cooking is simple. I cooked it with carrots and onions. =) Enjoy!

thats not much, you can make it with milk or cheese sauce!

I would roast it. Just cut it up into bite sized pieces, put it into a pan, drizzle a little bit of olive oil over it, and put it into the oven at 450 for about 10 minutes. You got a great deal!

There is a salad that is broccoli, red onion,bacon bits, sunflower seeds and raisins. Use a vinaigrette dressing or honey mustard dressing. Make soup. Blanch the broccoli and freeze it. Enjoy your money saving purchase as it is very healthy.

I steam my broccoli. I steam it on a Sunday and have some as my only vegetable with dinner that evening. I save the rest that I have steamed and have it each following week at lunch when I have a sandwich and drained canned green beans with tomato sauce; I put some of the broccoli in to warm with the green beans and tomato. Green beans are a good vegetable to have and both broccoli and tomato sauce are supposed to be very good for your health. I have started using no salt added green beans and tomato sauce since I have recently had to start watching my blood pressure. Bot green beans and broccoli are really good with the tomato sauce.

This is nice recipe, Maria. I like to taste it when you cook. Mg is already close.

I think that we started our friendship with my answering posts like this. I had missed this one, but today I am thinking about broccoli and I found this post. I love steamed broccoli with mayo or with olive oil and salt. I like it very much in quiches and puddings. You can steam it all al dente and it keeps for a long time in the freezer and for some days in the fridge. Un abrazo amiga

You can add to your fresh vegetable salad with tomatoes and icelet lettuce. I like it fry half cooked with butter and oyster sauce. You may add some ground beef if you want.

i love brocolli. try to search on the internet a recipe of four seasons. that is yummy. ah nevermind, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqkXakSMaY4&noredirect=1 try this one at youtube... or this one... http://www.asianonlinerecipes.com/online_recipes/china/the-four-seasons.php enjoy :)

hello mariaperalta broccoli is one of the most nutritious vegetable. it is also one of my favorite vegie. What recipe I like to cook with broccoli is Beef Broccoli. Just cut the broccoli in small portions like little trees, cut the beef thin just like the cut of a steak. Cook it with onions,garlic, black pepper, red/green bell pepper and mix it with soy sauce or oyster sauce.

There is so much you can do with this vegetable. I made stir fry with shrimp and steamed it with other veggies and shrimp. I actually learned to add some with my roast. my son does not like greenbeans but loves broccoli so I usually put both in with the potatoes and carrots. We also like to eat it like it is with ranch dressing. I also have a steamer and will steam it with chicken. To me broccoli is one of those versatile veggies you can really do a lot with when cooking. Forgot I also make a broccoli rice casserole. Have fun cooking it.
