Is this recipe good the next day ??
It’s got the best texture if you eat it right away. I can get a little mushy after storing it. BUT–if you have an air fryer for reheating, that helps!
Oh this looks amazing! Are there any variations to the timing if using frozen broccoli? During stupid Covid, we are trying to go out less and eat from our freezer more. Thank you!
I haven’t tried this with frozen broccoli. I imagine the cooking time would just be longer. Please let me know if you try it!
What could I use in place of Avocado oil? I have everything else on hand.
My husband said this is the best broccoli he’s ever eaten- super easy and very little clean up! I’m making it for the second time this week tonight! Thanks for the recipe!

I use your recipe at least once a week. My kids can’t eat broccoli any other way now. This has spoiled them completely!
