A Few Words…

Easy to prepare, pretty to look at and packed with beta-carotene, this dish of fragrant Chinese broccoli is absolutely delicious!

Last week I went exploring and opened a door to a grocery store that I have never been to. Seriously, I can’t believe what I have been missing by always going to the same stores. I found the Chinese broccoli there and will definitely go back to check out their other goodies soon.

Is Chinese broccoli on your grocery list this week? I hope so!

I’d love to hear from you! Have you ever tried Chinese broccoli?
