I definitely didn't like broccoli as a kid, until we had Thanksgiving dinner at a friend's home. I think it was Doris's recipe . . . and it's entirely possible that I might have changed things up to a degree over the years, but something similar to this recipe is what inspired me to eat broccoli more often and that's the important part, right? This is one recipe I have to make for Thanksgiving dinner - hands down. I know I've added mushrooms to it, since mushrooms rock! This is my version . . .
