Did you know that broccoli (and other cruciferous vegetables) is considered a legit way to reduce your risk of cancer? Yep, even the Amercian Cancer Society endorse eating lots of these veggies, particularly broccoli, to lower your chance of certain cancers and increase certain detoxing enzymes. Have a read: 
http://www.cancer.org/treatment/treatmentsandsideeffects/complementaryandalternativemedicine/dietandnutrition/broccoli. This is a BIGalad by the way. So you may like to halve the ingredients if your not feeding an entire family.

Yield: 10 cups (lots for the whole week!!)

  • 2 heads broccoli (1 bunch), stems removed
  • 1 head cauliflower, stems removed
