I'll take a broccoflower and cut it into smaller pieces, like some folks do
with cauliflower, then put it in a steamer with a ring of fat free or almost
fat free smoked sausage and then shake some seasoning salt or Cavender's
Greek Seasoning on it all. Then I steam it for fifteen to twenty minutes. It
makes a great low fat entrée that has a good amount of protein. (You can
substitute frozen broccoli and cauliflower pieces for the broccoflower)

Subject: [CnD] broccoflower

Hi everyone,

I wondered about broccoflower too. I did a quick search and This is a short
description of what I found. It is far from complete I'm sure but maybe it
will satisfy a bit of curiosity.



A broccoflower (also known as romanesco broccoli) is a hybrid created by
crossing cauliflower with the related broccoli. It has a very unusual
apearance, being a bright yellow-green with spiky florets. Another variety
is identical in shape to the cauliflower, but with lime-green flesh. Both
taste more like cauliflower than broccoli, and are generally served steamed
or lightly boiled.

     



hth,

Nancy
