My good buddy at Pedernales Fellowship, Marilyn Batten, brought this to our women’s potluck recently and we were all like WOW! I love broccoli anyway but always looking for more ways to use it rather than steamed with cheese sauce if you know what I mean! So had to include this one in the Gluten Free Lady holiday recipes! Great for potlucks and your next holiday gathering!
This recipe is from http://www.allrecipes.com
Sources have said that confirmed broccoli haters have changed their minds after tasting this one! They said to make it a day ahead to let the ingredients all marry together at the party! I use Coconut Palm sugar because it has a lower glycemic index and I always use the best bacon from Whole Foods with no nitrates or all that other junk that’s in the cheaper stuff! Everything is better with bacon anyway right so we might as well use the best!
