Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 cups broccoli florets
  • 3 cloves garlic chopped
  • 2/3 cup walnuts toasted, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese fresh
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice fresh
  • 1 cup basil loosely packed fresh
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese low-fat
  • 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil EVOO
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Steam broccoli for a few minutes until it is bright green but not too soft. Plunge in an ice bath to stop cooking. Remove and pat with a paper towel to dry. Purée in a blender or food processor with the remainder of the ingredients.
  2. Serve with fresh veggies, pita bread, or chips!

Notes

  • Be sure to use the broccoli stalks too! Or save for use in another recipe because they are just as nutritious as the florets! High in calcium, iron and Vitamin C.
