Broccoli is one of those foods that people either hate or love.  However, they should definitely be part of everyone’s diet because they are super healthy, being a source of vitamins C, K, and A as well as various minerals.

Luckily, there are lots of methods to make broccoli more palatable, allowing everyone to enjoy its nutritional benefits. Actress Kristen Bell recently went on social media to share one of her own methods and it might be a game changer.

In a story posted on her Instagram, Bell revealed a “major secret” that helps her turn broccoli into a tasty dish. The Veronica Mars star recommended garnishing steamed broccoli with salt, crushed pretzels, and parmesan cheese.

“Add salt, a little bit of crushed pretzels, and a little bit of parmesan cheese. Game over, everyone will eat it. It’s delicious,” Bell explained.

Additionally, Bell also offered a vegan-friendly version of the recipe. Instead of pretzels and parmesan cheese, she recommends pairing steamed broccoli with nutritional yeast and lemon juice.

Bell’s recipe is definitely worth trying but you can also experiment with various other methods to make broccoli tastier. This includes combining them with garlic and butter, stir-frying them, or making them part of a salad. If you try more than one, the chances are that you’ll find something you like and broccoli won’t be an unwelcomed food on your plate.
