BROCCOLI, HERB, AND PISTACHIO "GRAIN" SALAD
In the hierarchy of nutrient-rich vegetables, broccoli is hard to beat. It's low in calories and carbs, and a great source of fiber, antioxidants, and immune-boosting vitamin C. In this clever faux-grain salad, we steam broccoli and then finely chop it to create a rice-like texture. And when every bite is studded with bright and crunchy ingredients like pomegranate arils, chopped apple, and pistachios, you won't even remember that there aren't any actual grains in this salad!
