Easy Broccoli Recipes to Enjoy
The world of greens is diverse, but one veggie truly stands out: broccoli. This cruciferous vegetable is loaded with vitamins C and K, potassium, folate, and fiber while being relatively low in carbohydrates. Its unique flavor and crisp-tender texture can be a welcome addition to weeknight dinners. We’re big fans of broccoli here at HelloFresh and feature it in many delicious recipes. From our Sweet & Spicy Broccoli-Pepper Stir-Fry to our Cheesy Broccoli Crowns & Sargento Shredded 4 Cheese Mexican Blend, we believe our collection is among the best broccoli recipes out there.
HelloFresh Broccoli Tip
Try grating a head of broccoli. You can use grated broccoli to bulk up salads and stir-fries or as a base for a unique, low-carb pizza crust.
Frequently Asked Questions: Broccoli
What are some good broccoli recipes?
Fresh broccoli can easily be featured in a wide variety of dishes as there are plenty of broccoli soup, broccoli casserole, broccoli salad, broccoli stir-fry, and roasted broccoli recipes available.
What is the best cooking method for broccoli?
There’s no wrong way to cook broccoli. You can roast broccoli in an oven or air fryer by laying fresh broccoli florets in a single layer on a baking sheet and covering them with extra virgin olive oil, salt, and some black pepper. You can steam frozen broccoli for a healthy and yummy side dish. You can add it to a slow cooker for stew or grill it during cookouts.
What is the most nutritious way to eat broccoli?
If raw broccoli isn’t your favorite way to eat it, stir-fried or steamed broccoli is the next best thing, as they retain most vitamins and minerals.
Why put broccoli in ice water before cooking?
Plunging broccoli florets into ice water before cooking helps to preserve its vibrant green color and crispy texture.
Is broccoli better steamed or sauteed?
Steaming retains more nutrients, but sauteed broccoli can enhance flavor and texture from caramelization.
