Ingredients

  • 5 1/2 cups water
  • 3 stalks broccoli
  • salt and pepper to taste I used 1/2 teaspoon of each
  • optional goat cheese and extra virgin olive oil for garnish

Instructions

  • Bring water to a boil in a medium-sized pot.
  • Trim stems off broccoli so that you're only left with the florets then add to boiling water.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste then let simmer with lid on over medium/low heat for about 7 minutes or until the broccoli is fork-tender.
  • Strain broccoli away from water (saving water) and place in a blender.
  • Pour the seasoned cooking water just over the broccoli until covered.
  • Blend until smooth, add more salt/pepper to taste, and garnish with goat cheese or extra virgin olive oil.
