AWESOME BROCCOLI MARINARA
This is a great quick version of an Italian traditional side dish in our family all the way from Italy. You can use fresh tomatoes and basil. However, as a mother of four, I opt for the quick method as I'm sure other parents of small ones can appreciate. The kids really love this dish too. Buon Appetito!

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic, and cook for a few minutes, stirring constantly. Pour in the tomatoes with their juices, and simmer until the liquid has reduced by about 1/2. Place the broccoli on top of the tomatoes, and season with a little salt and pepper. Cover, and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender. Do not over cook the broccoli, it should be a vibrant green. Pour into a serving dish, and toss to blend with the sauce before serving.

[email protected]Great recipe! The sauce was a bit too tangy for my taste, but that's easily fixed with a little sugar or honey.

[email protected]Made this for dinner last night and it was delicious! The broccoli was still a little crunchy, just the way I like it. The sauce was also very tasty. Will definitely be making this again.

[email protected]Broccoli Marinara was a hit! The sauce was flavorful and the broccoli was cooked perfectly. I added some extra garlic and red pepper flakes for a bit of a kick. Definitely a keeper!
