Green Tea Broccoli

posted in Veggies |

Okay, so I’m coming out of long silence to post my green tea broccoli recipe.

Today’s post is inspired by my fellow broccoli fanatic @bryan_kavanagh who apparently routinely takes pictures of the broccoli he consumes :)

You will need:

As much broccoli as you’d like
Decaf green tea (one bag)
Seasonings of your choice

First, you’ll need to brew the green tea.

Green tea, steeping.  The bag broke, Ill strain it with a coffee filter before using

While the green tea is steeping, cut your broccoli to the desired size.

Add some bath salts to the water for the broccoli’s steam :)

My seasoning of choice, 1/2 tsp chicken bouillon

Rescue the broccoli when it reaches your desired doneness

Enjoy it! I’m having mine with a banana protein powder smoothie, making it the perfect post-workout lunch. It’s high in yummy and low in yuck.

Is this anyone elses idea of a good lunch, or am I really that odd?

Notice in the above pic my 1920s silver plate fork. Only the best for my lunch.

Tada! There’s my yummy green tea broccoli.  I’m still consuming it as I write this.  If you’re still reading you might be as crazy as Bryan and I are about your broccoli!
