How to Steam Broccoli in the Microwave in 5 Minutes
Broccoli is one of my favorite vegetables; I eat it at least twice a day because I love it so much. Not only does it consist of fiber, amino acids, potassium, and calcium (among many other nutrients), but it's also an outstanding detoxifier, boosts your immune system, and can help prevent against cancer.
Steaming broccoli is a quick and easy way to change it up from eating raw, roasted, or grilled broccoli. Steaming broccoli, along with many other vegetables, makes them softer and more palatable for some people. You also don't need a steamer to steam your vegetables.
