Pecans contribute heart-healthy, unsaturated fat to this recipe. However, because broccoli is such a low-calorie food, the fat percentage for this recipe is slightly higher than others. Ingredients:
1 (12-ounce) package fresh broccoli florets |
1 tablespoon light butter |
3 tablespoons chopped pecans, toasted |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Arrange broccoli in a steamer basket over boiling water. Cover and steam 4 minutes or until crisp-tender. Plunge broccoli into ice water to stop the cooking process; drain.
2. Heat butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat 2 to 3 minutes or until melted. Add broccoli, pecans, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring gently, 2 to 3 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
