Awesome Broccoli Snack/ Salad

Ingredients: For the dressing - 1 tbsp cashew butter (FabIndia) or homemade peanut butter or seasame butter/ tahini, juice of 1-2 lemons, 1 tbsp powdered flax seeds, 1 tbsp jaggery or date syrup, salt and herbs to taste.  2 cups broken broccoli florets,

Method - Break the broccoli into small florets and chop the stalk into bite size pieces.  Steam lightly till crunchy but not too hard/ soft.  Takes 1-2 mins in a steamer.  Mix all the dressing ingedients in a food processor or whisk with fork and pour 1/4 or 1/2 the dressing as per your taste.

Cashew butter is heavy so go easy but much better than oily dressings and so creamy.  Enjoy!

  1. Nandini, was this what you'd brought to my place? Where is the apple cider vinegar/raspberry vinegar?
