Day 269: Quick Sesame Broccoli ◄
Tonight I learned a new way to cook broccoli -- just pour boiling water over it! It's not quite as good as broccoli steamed like this but it has one huge redeeming factor: Easy Clean-up. Prep takes only a cover-able bowl and a small bowl for the sauce. It's also low-cal broccoli, low-carb broccoli, high-fiber broccoli and high-antioxidant broccoli. And zero -- that'd be 0 Weight Watchers points! And yes, despite all these many virtues, the broccoli tastes good too! NEXT TIME: The 'sesame sauce' was good but next time I'll add garlic and/or ginger, maybe a touch of hot sauce. I suspect this technique would work well with frozen broccoli, too.

And please accept my apologies, the index file has gotten so big that it's acting up on occasion.) QUICK SESAME BROCCOLI B
