About

Broccoli should be blanched before using. Cooking the broccoli for a short time and then immediately cooling it will help the vegetable retain its bright green color and crunchy texture. This recipe is vegetarian, but anyone who loves bacon knows that a few cooked and crumbled slices will only add to the yummy flavor.
