What goes into the Broccoli and Guacamole Plateau

In a nutshell, these are the ingredients that go into this delicious plateau:

Guacamole Recipe

Avocado – you’ll be making your own guacamole (always use the best creamy avocado you can find)
Red Onion – delicious in guacamole because it balances those healthy fats
Bell Pepper – we use it to add texture and color to the guacamole
Kalamata Olives – 2-3 of these wonderful salty olives will get your guacamole to the next level
Extra Virgin Olive Oil – great way to include healthy fats and phytonutrients into any meal
Lime Juice – lots of antioxidants to keep those healthy fats from oxidizing when exposed to oxygen
Salt – you know this one already!

Main Plateau

Broccoli – we lightly boil the broccoli in water for 1 minute and sprinkle salt on top
Guacamole – De-li-cious!
Red Onion – a few slices look great and will enhance the flavor of this whole meal
Green Peppers (salty, marinated in brine) – spicy, salty and marinated in brine 🙂
Green Olives – these come with lots of nutrients in a small package
Sourdough Bread – lately I prefer to eat a few slices of organic rye bread, naturally fermented and low in gluten

How to put this plateau together

This must be one of the easiest recipes that you can prepare. It doesn’t take more than 10-15 minutes and these are the basic steps to success:

Prepare the guacamole using my instructions in the recipe section below.
Boil the broccoli in hot water for about a minute (I like using frozen broccoli here).
Once the broccoli is ready, drain the water and move the hot broccoli to a separate dish. Sprinkle salt on top and mix a bit.
That’s it for the cooking part. Now take your time and arrange all the ingredients on a plate, as seen in my images.

Pro Tip: I truly believe that delicious food is all about balancing the ingredients, making sure that you always listen to your own body. This plateau can be easily extended with your favorite extras. Maybe you want to include walnuts, cashews or maybe a few half-pecans. Maybe you feel like tomatoes and cucumbers today. Or how about jalapenos and pickled vegetables?

Enjoy this vegan plateau with someone you love!
As always, go fresh, local and organic … and don’t forget to spread the love by sharing this post!
