I am not a professional chef but I do love cooking! And what i like the most is to NOT generate more waste. 🧑‍🍳So here is my way of cooking BROCCOLI STEMS. 📌Recipe: ✅Cut them into small pieces, add olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic (literally any condiment you like). ✅Oven at 375 for 30 minutes (half way of the cooking time shake them up) ✅Once you talk them out of the oven, i like to add lemon zest. You can eat them as a side dish or add them to any salad! Enjoy!
