Mixed Broccoli and Cauliflower Florets

Store unwashed in a breathable bag in the crisper drawer. For longer storage, blanch and freeze.

Roast at high heat (400-425°F or 200-220°C) with olive oil, salt, and pepper for crispy edges.

Add to stir-fries during the last 5-7 minutes of cooking to keep them tender-crisp.

Steam or boil until just tender, then toss with butter, lemon juice, and herbs.

Puree cooked florets into creamy soups or sauces for a healthy thickener.
