The DH couldn't stop raving about this, so even if I didn't like it (which I did), I'd still have given it 5 stars! All supper he kept saying, "Boy, this is better than just plain ol' broccoli with butter and S&P!!!!" I used butter instead of olive oil, but other than that made as directed. Thanks for a GREAT side!

This was really very good, I have been dealing with lots of morning sickness and not able to even look at broccoli....but I am starting to feel better and wanted to try eating it again. This is a keeper, thanks! (I did use only half of the olive oil as it seemed to be too much.

This is a great way to fix broccoli. I used fresh broccoli crowns which were separated into flowerets, rinsed and put in a microwave safe dish. I did not add the water and the garlic was thinly sliced and cooked along with the broccoli. I reduced the oil to 1 tablespoon, lightly sprinkled the dish with salt and used 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes. Something I know I will do again.

A delicious, simple and quick microwave recipe for those all too frequent occasions when you don’t have a lot of time, and want something tastier than steamed vegetables. I used fresh garlic and omitted the pepper flakes (personal preference), and added a small sprinkling of cumin which worked well. Just loved the lemony flavour too. Thanks for a really fabulous recipe, which I know I’ll be making often.
