Description
I first saw this in a magazine a few years back, and have enjoyed it ever since. The original recipe was a bit bland for my tastes, so i've spiced up my version a bit. It is a great way to use those broccoli stems, if you make a recipe that called for only the crowns. Remember to remove the seeds from the peppers if you do not want the heat. (times do not include the time for the edamame and broccoli to cool.)
