An easy, shaved broccoli recipe that is delicious and healthy!

A little more than a year ago I went to a restaurant, famished, but trying to choose something as healthy as possible to eat. Well, as healthy as one can be in my Jersey neighborhood (all the shade😒).

As I perused the menu an option for shaved broccoli salad with tahini and pan roasted pine nuts caught my eye… Oooooh. Can’t loose with tahini, right? I was like “ooooh, ahhhhhh”…. “and how does one shave a broccoli anyway?” “Guess I’m about to find out!”🍽😀

So I order my 12.00 broccoli salad and didn’t quite know what to expect, but I was excited!

Girl.

The salad arrived and it was shaved broccoli STALKS with toppings.

Yes. I had paid 12.00 for shaved broccoli stalks. The part I, shamefully 😬, generally threw in the trash until I decided to experiment with this recipe a few days ago. Lesson learned.

Can’t knock the hustle, but a lesson I learned that day was: Look for ways to be creative while cooking with foods that might “require” any portion to be trashed.

I cook broccoli often and decided to shave my stalks with a simple parring knife and steam them like I normally steam broccoli (5-6mins) and arrived at a delicious side dish that I want to share with you ( you can also make them thinner with a potato peeler for a ribbon effect).

In short, learn from my mistake, don’t pay 12.00 for broccoli stalks.

Catch the easy recipe below!
