This is a recipe, I would not normally make, but I had peppers and brocolli, in the garden, so thought I might try something different.<br/>A lovely light recipe which I served with both suggestions Roasted Red Pepper Sauce or Lemon Garlic Mayonnaise, although I did use green peppers in the mayo.<br/>It was really nice, although not enjoyed by all members of the family. I think because the brocolli seemed to take on a different flavour or maybe it was the texture, half of us loved it and a few vegie lovers did not. I loved the flavours, but then I adore brocolli.<br/>I served this with crusty bread and water crackers, and loved it.<br/>It does take a while to make, but well worth the effort, and I will be making this again, but over summer, maybe on a board with cheese.<br/>I think the Roasted Red Pepper Sauce or Lemon Garlic Mayonnaise is a must to serve with this also.<br/>A really lovely recipe Deb, can't wait for summer to try this again.
