BROCCOLI WITH LEMON, KALAMATA OLIVES AND CAPERS



Broccoli With Lemon, Kalamata Olives and Capers image

From a local source. I tested this recipe by substituting a variety of colors of cauliflower (purple, white, golden) for the broccoli. Other cruciferous vegetables such as broccolini, broccoflower, brussels sprouts, romanesco, etc. will work, too. Easy!
