I received the recipe for this broccoli side dish from a good friend in North Carolina. I like to use fresh thyme from my herb garden. The cream orange sauce is even better than hollandaise. —Kathy Samuelson of Omaha, Nebraska Ingredients:
1-1/2 pounds fresh broccoli, cut into florets |
6 ounces fat-free cream cheese, cubed |
1/4 cup fat-free milk |
1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon grated orange peel |
1/4 cup orange juice |
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts |
Directions:
1. Place broccoli in a steamer basket over 1 in. of boiling water in a saucepan. Cover and steam for 5-8 minutes or until crisp-tender. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the cream cheese, milk, thyme, salt and orange peel. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until blended. Stir in orange juice until combined. Place broccoli in a serving dish; top with orange cream and nuts. Yield: 6 servings.
