Organic Baby Broccoli

There had been a run on broccoli florets on my last Trader Joe’s visit, so I shelled out a bit extra for the more premium #organic baby broccoli (broccolini?) I love the long, crunchy-but-not-tough stems and cruciferous sweetness of this elegant vegetable, which holds up so nicely sautéed or in pasta dishes! The whole tray was fresh and delicious — not a bad piece in the bunch.

Organic baby broccoli tastes amazing with a little char from cooking it in a cast iron skillet. It’s my favorite way to cook most veggies unless I’m roasting them. I added this to some vegan Mac and cheese. 😋

Maybe I didn’t cook it quite as long as I usually cook broccoli, but it seemed crunchier! Anyways, if you like broccoli, it can be used in the same way.
