Broccomole, a delicious creamy dip made from steamed broccoli - via The Kittchen

What's Broccomole? It's a dip made with steamed broccoli, that can be compared to guacamole. And it is my new obsession. While my broccoli-hating-husband said that broccomole is his worst nightmare, my friends and I disagree with him. Broccomole does taste like broccoli, but it is seasoned with sour cream, lemon, mayonnaise, and a touch of sriracha resulting in a fresh creamy dip. And it just might be a fun way to serve your kids come veggies.

I made this for a soccer themed article for another site, so I used a bit of sour cream to draw the lines of a soccer field over the dip. Then I used pretzels to make goals. This is both the easiest thing, and the cutest. Considering the fact that Team USA is in the Women's World Cup Finals on Sunday - this is the perfect thing to serve during the match. (Things at my house will be tense if they end up facing off against England….)

I brought this dip with me to a picnic with my friends and I had at the Damien Rice concert at Millennium Park. We thought the dip was a refreshing alternative to guacamole, and a great way to get out servings of veggies for the day.

If you want to add some creaminess to your broccomole, add a touch of cream cheese.

Author: Kit Graham

Ingredients

  • 2 Large Heads of Broccoli
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon Juice
  • ¼ cup 2% Milk
  • 2 tablespoons Mayonaisse
  • ½ cup Reduced Fat Sour Cream
  • ½ teaspoon Sriracha
  • ½ teaspoon Salt

Instructions

  • Start off by steaming the broccoli. Trim the large pieces of stem off the broccoli, breaking it up into smaller pieces. Pour 2 inches of water in a large pot, add the broccoli, cover the pot with a lid, and bring the water to a boil. Let the broccoli steam for 5-6 minutes, until it is fork tender. You want the stems to be nice and soft.
  • Let the broccoli cool, or run under cold water to cool it off.
  • Pour all the wet ingredients and salt into the blender. Add about ⅓ of the broccoli. I don't have a high powered blender, so I needed to add the broccoli gradually. Blend everything together on a medium speed. Add the remaining broccoli in two more batches, blending thoroughly.
  • Add more salt and sriracha to the broccomole to taste, blending to combine.
  • Pour into a serving dish. Serve chilled with pretzels or tortilla chips.
