Make the Most of This Recipe
Substitution
Have you tried broccoflower, the new vegetable that’s a hybrid of broccoli and cauliflower? This side dish is just as tasty and pretty if you use broccoflower instead of the broccoli.
Time Saver
Skip the garlic chopping, and use 1 teaspoon of finely chopped garlic from a jar instead.
