Steamed Broccoli

Ingredients
1 bunch of broccoli

Optional Toppings: Olive oil, butter, flax seed oil, or mayonnaiseLemon zest or juice, balsamic vinegarToasted almonds, toasted sesame seeds

Directions

1. Rinse broccoli, and break into large, bite-sized florets.

2. Bring 3/4 to 1 inch of water to a boil in a saucepan with a steamer
(Note that is you don't have a steamer, you can simply put the broccoli directly into an inch of boiling water.)
3. Add the broccoli to the steamer and cover; reduce heat to medium and let cook for 6-7 minutes. The broccoli is done when you can pierce it with a fork. But be careful not to overcook the broccoli. As soon as it is pierce-able, remove from heat, place in serving dish.

4. Dress to taste with butter, olive oil, flax seed oil, mayonnaise, lemon zest or juice, balsamic vinegar, toasted almonds, or sesame seeds.
