BROCCOLI 'N RED PEPPERS STIR FRIED



Broccoli 'n Red Peppers Stir Fried image

The key to a good stir fry is to have the veggies piping hot but still crisp. Cook this to your liking in terms of crispness. If you like a thicker sauce add 2 tsp of cornstarch to the stock. Great with Chicken. If you wish this suitable for vegetarrian diets use veggie stock in place of the chicken stock I have made this again in 2009. I modified the recipe by omitting the sesame seeds, used no oil just a light spray of "no oil." Not caring for a lot of sauce cut out the stock and used 4 tbsp of vermouth with 3 tbsp light soy - It worked.

BULGUR PILAF WITH BROCCOLI AND PEPPERS



Bulgur Pilaf With Broccoli and Peppers image

I have recently started the WW Core program which emphasizes whole grains, produce, and a little bit of good oil. Around the same time I started I also re-found a lovely little cookbook that a friend gave me a few years ago called "One Pot Vegetarian Dishes" by Amy Cotler. This pilaf is a modification of a recipe from that book. It needs a little salt and pepper but is a nice main dish or side dish depending on your eating style. The original recipe says it can be served either warm or cold though I have only tried it warm. And the original recipe called for red pepper. As I only had frozen green pepper that is what I used, but feel free to change it.

BROCCOLI AND ENDIVE SALAD WITH FETA AND RED PEPPERS



Broccoli and Endive Salad With Feta and Red Peppers image

Parents appreciate broccoli because it's one vegetable that their children will eat. But what about broccoli for adults? How much plain steamed broccoli do you really want to eat? We rarely base a meal on this healthy food, yet there are plenty of ways to move it to the center of your plate. For main dishes, I am most likely to use broccoli in a salad, a soup or pasta. Those little flowers - the crown of the broccoli is the plant's flower - are like sponges for tasty sauces, dressings and broths. Like other cruciferous vegetables in the Brassica family (kale, collard greens, cabbage, Brussels sprouts and cauliflower), broccoli contains sulfur-containing phytonutrients that have gotten a lot of attention from nutritionists for their potential cancer-fighting properties. It's packed with vitamins C, A, K and folate, as well as with fiber. And broccoli is a very good source of manganese, tryptophan, potassium, B vitamins, magnesium, iron, calcium, zinc and vitamin E. In this beautiful salad, the bitter flavor of the endive is countered by the sweet red peppers and broccoli.
