Dave-approved Broccoli

Dave is not a fan of broccoli, or most veggies, really. I was happily surprised when he complimented tonight's dish.

Super easy Baked Broccoli, Dave-approved

Take two heads of broccoli, and trim the stems. Chop everything including florets and stems. Drizzle some EVOO in the bottom of a baking dish that fits the broccoli in a single layer. Drizzle more EVOO on top. Add a few splashes of balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle some minced fresh garlic on top (I used 3 medium cloves). Salt & pepper. Put in an oven preheated to 400*F. Bake uncovered until the tops are brown. I'm going to guess it was around 30-40 minutes. Serve to your veggie skeptics and enjoy!

chocolate coconut flour cupcakes

avocado mayo

A friend just showed me this recipe for egg-free avocado mayo. I will give it a full review after we try it. Once we get more EVOO, because somehow, we are out...
