Greek Braised Broccoli with Garlic and Tomato

A hearty vegan dish of tender broccoli cooked with garlic, carrots and tomato in olive oil.

I often associate broccoli with a vegetable no one wants to eat, where you have to serve it with ranch dressing or some sort of yellow liquid cheese. But it doesn’t have to be that way, there are so many delicious ways to enjoy broccoli, even as a main dish. This dish of braised broccoli I use the Greek technique of cooking vegetables with olive oil and tomato. It was so hearty and flavorful and pairs beautifully with a squeeze of lemon and some salty and tangy feta.
