Butter Garlic Broccoli with Sturdy Garlic & Herb Sauce
Broccoli gets a bad rap. People either overcook it into a sad, mushy mess or drown it in bland, boring seasoning. But not today.
This quick and easy butter garlic broccoli recipe keeps things bold, vibrant, and packed with flavor. And the secret? Sturdy Garlic & Herb Sauce.
With a blast of robust garlic and herbs (and a whopping 20g of complete protein per serving!), this sauce takes regular broccoli from meh to absolutely mouthwatering. No weak flavors. No nutrition-deprived meals. Just real ingredients, real protein, and real good food.
