Unsexy (but tasty) Broccoli and Radish Recipe

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

It's actually fairly pretty, but still not sexy. I guess I shouldn't be food-shaming the poor veggies.

It’s actually fairly pretty, but still not sexy. I guess I shouldn’t be food-shaming the poor veggies.

That’s right. This recipe is as unsexy as a recipe can get. I mean, broccoli and radishes? Woop de woo.

But I found myself staring into a mostly empty fridge at 9 PM on a week night. All I had in there was a head of broccoli and a bunch of radishes leftover from my last CSA box.
I was hungry. I not so secretly wanted to order pizza. But no! If the contestants in Chopped can come up with their recipes, so can I.

And Lo! I made the unsexiest, but super tasty, broccoli and radish recipe.

To add to the unsexy, I dumped the contents into a large tupperware bowl (NOT SHOWN) and then wolfed it down while watching “Sweet Genius” on TV with no pants on (ALSO NOT SHOWN).
Because who needs pants and pizza when you have broccoli and radish?

WHO AM I?? SEND HELP.

Also, I am currently madly obsessed with avocado oil. It has a super high smoke rate and NO flavor, unlike olive oil and coconut oil. OBSESSED.

Here is the link to the full recipe/nutrition on MyFitnessPal.
It creates about 3 servings, if you are using this as a side serving to a main meal. I ate all of it as an entire meal.
~13 net carbs per serving, but those carbs are all coming from the broccoli. When paired with the fat, this is a low glycemic meal.
