This was the best broccoli recipe ever! I used microwavable steamed broccoli and dried herbs with fresh garden tomatoes, it was awesome!

Tried this recipe for the first time tonight and it was soooo easy to prepare and delicious. I followed the advice of the person who steamed the broccoli and also while I was heating up the olive oil I threw in just a 1/4 of a teaspoon of crushed red pepper.

Just made this for dinner--it's delicious, and very easy! I didn't have tomatoes either, so I drained and dumped in a can of corn instead. Even better, since the corn adds a touch of sweetness to the dish. I also added a dash of--Mrs. Dash!
