Broccoli Puree image

This is a Giada De Laurentiis recipe and my whole family loves it. What a great way to get kids to eat broccoli, and it makes an unexpected side dish as a replacement for plain mashed potatoes.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my puree turned out watery and bland. I think I may have added too much milk.

I followed the recipe exactly and the puree turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
