Our Best Broccoli Recipes
Ready to get your broccoli on?
Let’s do this!
Spicy Szechuan Shrimp and Broccoli
First up is one of my older recipes that has rave reviews! ★★★★★ It’s a restaurant copycat of one of my favorite spicy shrimp and broccoli dishes and features a boatload of gorgeous green broccoli.
It’s easy to throw together for a busy weeknight dinner and the fiery sauce is finger licking good!
Cauliflower Broccoli Salad
I love making this salad for outdoor parties and barbecues to pair with veggie burgers and hot dogs. It’s crazy flavorful and so easy to make!
Cheesy Baked Potatoes with Broccoli Cheese Sauce
The recipe for this epic broccoli cheddar sauce makes enough for 2 large russet potatoes (meal-sized) or 3-4 small (side dish sized) spuds. Feel free to make as many as you’d like as it’s oh so easy to double or triple the recipe!
I served these as a tasty vegetarian lunch and they would also make a great side dish – you could even serve 1/2 a spud per person if your using large potatoes.
Quinoa Fried Rice
This scrumptious side dish is also healthy and totally easy to customize based on what you have on hand!
Broccoli Kale Salad
I love making this broccoli studded kale salad when the weather warms up. It’s so healthy and refreshing!
Broccoli Tortellini
This is such an easy dinner and it channels the flavors of fettuccine Alfredo in a tasty tortellini form. Feel free to add extra broccoli — I always do!
Broccoli Salad
I have two equally tasty versions of broccoli salad here on the blog. The first is more conventional, dressed with a tangy homemade sauce and studded with bacon and cheddar.
The second is a vegetarian version with carrots, cranberries and sunflower seeds. It’s absolutely delicious and has a lightened up dressing as well!
Broccoli Gratin

Hello easiest dinner! This one pan wonder is made all on one sheet pan and is so fast and flavorful! We make this dish on repeat a lot around here.
