I count myself lucky that my kids have gotten used to eating vegetables at least once a day. That said, when it’s broccoli over and over again, they do give me a little grief, so I’ve taken it upon myself to try and keep things exciting by incorporating different recipes that I know they’ll love. They love the simple, straightforward flavors from the garlic and seasonings. Also, instant pot broccoli is one of the more versatile recipes out there because it takes very little time to cook on the “pressure cook” setting, and there’s minimal clean up, which is always a good thing after a long day.
