Tired of eating broccoli steamed with a little butter?  Well, how about adding some potatoes and sour cream to liven it up?  Today’s recipe is from the magazine, Real Simple.  I am one of those people who loves broccoli, so this recipe is a winner for me.  Wondering if my boys liked it?  My oldest son had this to say, “Why did you have to ruin the mashed potatoes by adding broccoli?”  Sorry son, but this recipe is good.
