Fresh lemon juice plus the crunch of walnuts adds some spunk to cooked broccoli in this simple dish that’s super low in calories, carbs, fat and sodium.

Ingredients:

fresh broccoli, rinsed and chopped (4 cups of florets) baby broccoli works very nicely too
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped walnuts
1 tablespoon raisins
ICB spray or olive oil using olive oil sprayer (if both n/a use a teaspoon of olive oil)
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Cook the broccoli until almost done- by either boiling them in a pot of water, steaming in a pyrex dish in an half inch of water or even quicker, put them in a Glad® Simply Cooking™ Microwave Steaming Bag and heat on high for about 2-3 minutes. Spray a small to medium sized pan with ICB or an olive oil sprayer or drizzle very lightly with a teaspoon olive oil and put on medium heat.
