Spring is finally here and we can all enjoy the expanding options of fresh fruits and vegetables. Broccoli is a versatile super food that can be added to meals and snacks from breakfast to dinner. Select broccoli that feels heavy and has firm stalks and tight heads. Unwashed broccoli can be stored in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to a week. Happy spring!
5 Great Ways to Enjoy Spring Broccoli:
- Add chopped broccoli to an egg and cheese frittata for breakfast or lunch
- Roast broccoli in olive oil and coarse salt for a side dish or snack (this is a consistent winner with all ages!)
- Top a baked potato with steamed or roasted broccoli
- Serve broccoli with sausage on polenta
- Dip raw broccoli in hummus for lunch or snack
Stay super!
