Broccoli is probably my favorite veggie. What about stir-fried broccoli? Just some soy, and a bit of stock make it so nice. Also, I love mine pan sauteed with some garlic, olive oil, and anchovies. Yum. And on top of pizza. Delish.

Out of all the foods/recipes I've ever shared with anyone, the MOST favorite is the M. Clark broccoli! It is THAT good! When I make it, I don't even have time to let it marinate, I just pick it warm out of the bowl, like candy!

I love including broccoli in omelets. I usually mix it in with other veggies (peppers, onions) and sometimes bacon. I also include it in stir fry like lotus moss. So easy to include along with carrots and other otherwise blah veggies. And it's always good in pasta as well.

Must try to M. Clark recipe sometime.

The sexy, spicy broccoli is one my absolute favorite recipes. However, I'm breastfeeding and my daughter is miserable (which means we all are miserable) after raw broccoli. I'm please to report the recipe also great with cooked (not overcooked) broccoli!

Oh how I wish I could eat broccoli in larger quantities! Unfortunately it tears up my digestive system, if I may be so indelicate. My favorite pizza place in town puts bits of broccoli florets on white pizza, the mozzarella/broccoli/garlic combo is tasty.

I like stir-fried broccoli with soy sauce, garlic and ginger, or micro-steamed with a squeeze of lemon juice and a dash of fresh pepper. Also, sauteed broccoli with olive oil, garlic, capers and crushed red pepper is divine!

I love it pan roasted in butter, olive oil and plenty of garlic. Let it sit for a bit before turning to get it a wee bit browned. Yum.

I like to make broccoli tempura with a soy chili dipping sauce. The batter is super light and I use very little veg. oil.

Also, like to lightly steam broc, chill and slightly dip a very good dijon mustard.

I love broccoli, and loved it even as a child. My favorite is steamed with cheese sauce or browned butter, both classics from my mom.

I'm growing a di Cicco variety and I just can't believe people could ever hate broccoli. Well, unless they've only had it steamed. I really do believe that steamed veggies turn most people off from veggies. Who wants that bland nonsense anyway? I use brocc in curries, to make a creamy brocc soup, on pizza, in pasta, with cold noodles, in salads, in just about anything. Oh yes, and I'm with LoriSF. Brocc tempura is yummy!

As a kid I loved broccoli with honey on it. Sweet yes, but honey has some good to it and a little bit got me eating a lot of broccoli.

Now I think it is great chopped into quiche or as part of a simple stir-fry of pork or beef (thin cut), onions and broccoli with a half-and-half (more or less) sauce of soy and peanut butter (chunky).

There is always a bag of frozen broccoli in my freezer at all times. I love it sauteed in olive oil with tons of garlic and red chili flakes. Sometimes I eat that as a side or I toss it with bowtie pasta and parmaesan. I also love raw broccoli slaw tossed with green onions, peanuts, cubes of tofu, and Trader Joe's poppyseed dressing.

Thanks for the recipe. I came home from the market with broccoli... hmmm... what to make? Well, I just made Melissa Clark's "sexy,spicy"... it's going to a potluck dinner tomorrow. I had to restrain myself because like aleec I was eating it right out of the bowl. Super-easy! I had all the ingredients inhouse.

Roasted broccoli, tomatoes and onions with lots of lemon.

I love broccoli stems almost more than the flowerets when steamed or stir fried. Just peel (if the stems are tough) & slice into disks.

Sounds like there are a lot of broccoli lovers out there.
Putting it in recipes like Chicken Divan is a good way to get some of this green leafy vegetable on your table and (hopefully) in kid's stomachs.

I never understood why people hated broccoli. I love it! I just put it in the microwave with salt, pepper, butter, (sometimes substitute oyster sauce for salt) and water to help steam cook it and that's it! Maybe people overcook their veggies?
