Broccoli with Garlic Lemon Butter Sauce


This is a super easy side dish you can throw together in minutes.  If you don't over microwave frozen broccoli, it tastes just as good as fresh!

Broccoli with Garlic Lemon Butter Sauce

2-3 cups broccoli florets, steamed if fresh or microwaved 2 minutes if frozen
1 Tbsp butter, melted
1/8 tsp minced garlic (I buy the kind in a small glass jar that you refrigerate)
6-7 drops of lemon juice or to taste

Mix butter, garlic and lemon together and pour over broccoli just before serving.  And that's IT!  Adjust the proportions of the sauce to make it buttery, garlicky or lemony.  This sauce is also excellent over green beans (I ALWAYS use fresh green beans steamed rather than frozen, however!).
