This is now my favorite broccoli side. I am not the biggest cooked broccoli fan and DH and I both enjoyed this. I couldn't find tomatoes with balsamic vinegar so I used tomatoes with olive oil, basil and oregano and added a splash of balsamic. We also tried some with a bit of parmesan sprinkled on it and it was very good! Thanks for this one! Made for PAC Fall 2008
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I absolutely love to cook and bake. I have a huge collection of recipes (that just keeps growing), as I really like to experiment with new flavors and ideas.
Since smell and taste are the senses that are most strongly linked to memory, I like to collect recipes and cook/bake things that remind me of people in my life, times in my life, or places I've been. It makes me happy to reminisce while I'm enjoying the food I've made!
I look forward to meeting new people here and exchanging ideas!
