I have been trying to find recipes for steamed vegetables
that will give the veggies extra flavor without me feeling the need to add
butter. I love the flavor of buttered veggies but at 100 calories a tablespoon
butter is not on the menu.
I found a recipe for spicy steamed broccoli by Martha
Stewart that sounded good. Although I didn’t use her recipe I took the concept
of her’s and made it my own. This recipe actually turned out incredible. The flavor
was awesome and delicious. I am going to try other vegetables in this same
style. It’s a great way to add a new flavor without the added butter calories.
Ingredients:
- 1 pound broccoli florets
- ½ tbsp. garlic powder
- 2 beef bouillon cubes
- 1 1/2 cups water
- Peel and slice thick stems from broccoli; separate florets.
- In a skillet, bring water beef cubes, and garlic powder to a simmer over medium-low heat.
- Add stems and florets; cook, covered, until bright green 10-15 minutes then test for tenderness.
