This Sesame Ginger Broccoli is so delicious, you’ll crave this stuff for breakfast. Now, even if you’re not a broccoli fan, just hear me out.
You have no idea what this will do to you.
It will change your life and have you craving broccoli on the regular.
This is where I was initially inspired.
Originally published in 2007 by Elise from Simply Recipes, this recipe has been on regular rotation in this house since.
She’s awesome.
Pair this with anything – grilled chicken or fish, steak, or just eat it by itself. It’s that good.
Feel free to tweak this to your taste – adding more soy sauce or ginger, or toasting the sesame seeds. Elise does toast hers, and I’ve made it both ways.
I’ve literally eaten this broccoli for breakfast a few times because I love it so much.
Now, check out my pretty glass bowl and serving tongs.
This is what I stored my leftovers in. It’s the 2-in-1 Salad Servers“>2-in-1 Salad Server from OXO.
They’re the bomb.
The glass containers can go from freezer to oven (without cracking or shattering) and have these amazing snap close plastic lids with four locking tabs and removable gasket that form a leak proof seal.
They’re nestable and stackable, and easy to store in your cabinets. The serving tongs lock together at the bottom, and can be unsnapped and locked together in reverse for storage.
I’m loving these things.
