Inas version is wonderful, you can do the same treatment to brussels sprouts, love adding the cheese at the end!

Broccoli salad IS delicious.

Broccoli Salad with Purple Onion and Raisins - Broccoli Salad Recipe

Mix it with rice, chunks of chicken breast, cream of chicken or cream of mushroom soup, and cheese. Bake like a casserole.

Beef and broccoli.

I never use the peas, either. But everything else is included in my recipe.

Just as fattening but absolutely wonderful on steamed/cooked broccoli:

3 Tblsp. mayonaise
2 Tblsp. ketchup
1 Tblsp. Heinz 57
1 Tblsp. lemon juice

I don't know the exact amounts but it should be a medium pinkish/brown color.

I usually make more than that because its is great on pork chops, chicken, etc. too!

In summer, I cook my broccoli and put it in the fridge. Then I serve it cold with mayo on it.

If you buy the entire broccoli, with the hard stem, eat that separately. Peel off the fibrous skin, and dip the heart in salt. Very similar to the heart of cabbage or cauliflower, or like raw rutabaga or kohlrabi.

One of the best casseroles I've ever made consisted largely of ham chunks and broccoli in a cheesy cream sauce. But I guess that's just broccoli with cheese on it again.

That's pretty much Thousand Island dressing without the pickles in it.
