We love a warm salad, and this one is no exception. Broccoli stays crunchy yet tender in the microwave, and a simple dressing and sprinkle of sesame seeds brings it to the next level.
All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwave and home kitchens to make sure they work— and work well. Unless specified otherwise, all recipes should be cooked at full power.
What You’ll Need
What You’ll Need
The Medium Shallow Dish
Look no further for making poached eggs, desserts, dips, and small portions of meat or fish.
The Medium Deep Dish
The best dish for 1-2 portions of grains, veggies, mac and cheese, ramen, and more.

- 1½ teaspoons red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- salt, to taste

Preparation
- Mix the broccoli, oil, ginger, garlic, and salt in the Anyday dish. Cover with the lid (knob lifted).
- Cook in the microwave for 3 minutes, or until broccoli is vibrant green and just tender.

Serving suggestions & tips
- Add slivered or toasted almonds for an added crunch.
- When cooled, this salad makes a nice side dish for a picnic.
- Try sesame oil instead of olive oil.
Recipe notes
- If using frozen broccoli, add it to the Anyday still frozen and cook for the same amount of time.
- Microwave ovens vary, even with the same wattages. Adjust cooking times as needed.
