3 Reviews of Broccoli Bonanza

I enjoyed this. I had to sub in well-drained, canned tomatoes because its winter and California mix because I had everything ready only to discover that my kids had finished the broccoli without telling me. Both substitutions worked just fine. The bread crumbs toasted in the olive oil gave it an odd, half crunchy, half soggy with tomato juice texture that I wasn't all that fond of so I think I will leave them out another time. The broccoli-tomato-garlic-balsamic vinegar flavor was a hit. I sprinkled it with a bit of parmesan because it seemed to fit. Its not too much trouble and makes up quickly so it will fit right in on those days when the meat is a little plain and, while you aren't up to anything elaborate, a simple steamed or microwaved vegetable isn't enough. You're right about the servings. I fed one adult, 2 teens, a 6yo, and a baby and we were scraping the pot so 6 adults is a bit iffy unless they're very light eaters. I'll bet it would be tasty to do the same thing with zucchini.

We liked this but next time I will omit the bread crumbs. And there will be a next time. The taste and colors are perfect. Thanks Annacia for sharing Made for the US Regional Alphabet Tag.

I really loved this - breadcrumbs and all! It does have an interesting combination of flavors that I enjoy. I made exactly as stated. I love the taste of balsamic vinegar; it's not too overpowering. I will make this again!
