So, admittedly, broccoli is not one of those foods that people just crave and get really excited to eat. As a culture we usually hide it in dishes that feature a more appetizing ingredient: Broccoli Cheese Soup, Chinese Beef and Broccoli, Broccoli cupcakes (not kidding), and some people even fry broccoli to make chips!
I have been finding myself eating the "mini trees" whenever I can lately. It is so good and even Zoe Scout has started to participate in my mid-afternoon veggie-athon. She still avoids eating the stalks but will chow down on the tops.
I lost 1/2 a pound this week which I am happy about. I have made some serious food-life changes in the past couple of weeks so I am hoping this will help me to stay on track a little better and avoid that Dr. Pepper trap that I mentioned last week!
51.5 lbs to go.
I actually think they look kinda yummy!
I read this.
ReplyDeleteAlso, broccoli might be the greatest veggie after the cob of corn. Nothing is greater than the corn cob. But broccoli is awesome, too.
