I present today this list of 23 simple dinner with broccoli recipes. Broccoli is another staple vegetable in my kitchen so I use it as an ingredient in many dishes. I make broccoli as a healthy side dish a couple times a week. I usually sauté fresh broccoli florets in garlic and oil or I will steam some frozen broccoli and serve with a drizzle of olive oil and salt and pepper.

23 Simple Dinner Recipes with Broccoli

I mainly use broccoli as an ingredient is pasta dishes, sautés, or stir fry recipes. That is what is featured in this collection of simple dinner with broccoli recipes.

I keep a ready supply of broccoli in the house at all times. It is a vegetable that everyone in my family will eat. So, I keep a few frozen bags in the freezer and will buy fresh broccoli when the price is good.

I would love to grow broccoli but my garden is not large enough to grow enough to really make a difference in my grocery bill. Broccoli takes a full square foot to grow, which will produce one large head of broccoli and a few side shoots. Not very much in the big picture.

In that same square foot of space I can grow 4 heads of lettuce, 6 spinach plants, 9 bush bean plants, or a tomato, eggplant, or pepper plant. I need to maximize my output in the space I have for gardening.

But this does not stop me from eating broccoli and few times a week. When the price is high for fresh broccoli I buy more frozen. When the price is good for fresh I buy more of that and less frozen. You get the idea.

This collection of simple dinner with broccoli recipes can be made with both fresh or frozen broccoli.
