Caramelized Broccoli Salad

Hi,

I know. I know. Another vegetable recipe. But, I think this is a particularly good broccoli recipe. What I like about it is, you can serve it the next day, hot or cold, and it's perfectly delicious. I think most times with cooked broccoli it's not so good the next day. This recipe was adapted from family circle.

1 large onion diced
2 tablespoons olive oil

In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil and onion. Cook, stirring until the onion begins to get brown around the edges.

8 cups small broccoli florets and stem pieces cut into bite sized pieces

Add the broccoli and cook until the brocolli starts turning bright green, just a few minutes.

1/2 cup walnuts

Add walnuts and mix.

1/2 cup golden raisins
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3/4 teaspoon salt
freshly ground black pepper

Remove from heat and add the raisins, vinegar, salt and pepper. Taste to adjust seasoning.

I hope you like this recipe. It goes along great with any cooked protein such as baked chicken or pork chops. Make enough that you can have it for leftovers the next day!

Happy Cooking! Hugs,
