This recipe is so easy and elegant. Red peppers and garlic really kick steamed brocolli up a notch. Serve with any pasta dish instead of a salad.

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
4 shallots, thinly sliced
1 sweet red pepper, sliced into rounds
1/4 cup asiago cheese, grated
salt and pepper
red pepper flakes
Directions:
1. Place the broccoli in a steamer basket.
2. Steam over boiling water in a large covered saucepan for 3-5 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender.
3. Transfer to large bowl.
4. Saute the garlic, red pepper and shallots in a large skillet with the olive oil for 3 minutes.
5. Remove from heat.
6. Add the broccoli and mix well.
7. Add the salt, black pepper, red-pepper flakes and Asiago cheese.
8. Toss lightly.
