Why I like this…
For real? I happen to LOVE broccoli. I like the simplicity of this recipe and the red pepper adds a pop of flavor without overwhelming it.
Why it matters…
Broccoli is known for its health benefits, but did you know it is also high in nutrients like vitamin C, K, iron, potassium, protein, and fiber?
