Loved this recipe, thanks Joel. My husband, 2yr old son, and I had tons of it today. We all have a hard time with broccoli but not this time! :)

Prepared this dish to go with a German Goulash recipe I had prepared. It was a great "taste" experience - very easy to prepare (I used frozen broccoli instead of fresh) - and a great compliment to the main dish.

I made this recipe one evening b/c I had extra broccoli and carrots.....I'm so happy I made it! My husband and I loved it!!! We like garlic so we did use 2-3 cloves. Have made it 3 times already!

Easy prep, AWESOME flavor. It tasted like something you would order from a restaurant and the colors make it so pretty to look at on your plate.

I only used 2 cloves of garlic but the taste was overwhelming. I think the garlic should be the first thing sauteed as it needs to be done to death for this combo of flavors to work IMO
