Blanched Broccoli

Yeah, I know vegetables are best eaten steamed. I am lazy and steaming vegetables involves more utensils that I already have, so blanched it is then. Hey, all is not lost, because I used the blanched water to cook vegetable stock by adding other vegetables and turned them into soup.
I used one head of broccoli, some olive oil as dressing, a dash of vinegar, salt and pepper to taste. Boil sufficient water in a pot, and when the water is boiled, dump in the broccoli and get them out as soon as they turn vivid green. Don’t overcook the vege because you are going to destroy the nutrients.
Give those miniature green trees a toss with the olive oil dressing, vinegar, salt and pepper and you are good to go!
