Sprout & Pea

This one isn’t so much an elaborate recipe as it is one of my most favorite simple fresh side dishes to toss together.   Aside from a big salad, broccoli is one of the things I crave most when I’m in the mood for something light and refreshing and when I want to get my nutrients on.  All I do for this is chop up one head of broccoli and 3 cloves of garlic.  I toss the broccoli and garlic in a large pan with a generous drizzle of olive oil, add the juice of one lemon and let simmer on low-medium heat until it’s soft and bright green.   This is so simple and quick and seemed to be a big hit with my friends the other night which always makes me happy!
