A great find: just so delicious you could eat it on its own and feel that you'd enjoyed a feast! I followed Maito's suggestion and changed the butter/lemon ratio slightly. And Rita's review reminded me that I had some limoncello that I hadn't used in a while so I added some of that too. I've always liked broccoli, but with this lemon almond butter: WOW! Needless to say, I'll be making this again and again. Thank you for sharing another fabulous recipe, Annacia!

Yummy broccoli! I used less butter, more lemon, and toasted sliced almonds. I loved the nuts and lemon together.

Very nice flavor, easy to prepare. I enjoyed the lemony flavor and the nuts in this, although next time I would toast the nuts first. I used some lovely fresh purple sprouting broccoli in this and the sauce was a nice accompaniment.
