We all know that broccoli casserole is basically the most comforting side dish of all time, right? The problem with the popular dish is that it"s often laden with butter and salt. I"ve decided to put my California-girl spin on the traditional side dish. What that essentially means is that I"m subbing broccolini for the broccoli and lightening it all up just a touch. I promise that no flavor is sacrificed. It’s one of those recipes that’s always in my back pocket, so I can whip it out at a moment"s notice for a potluck or impromptu dinner get-together at my place.
