Bake Potatoes at 400° for about an 60-90 minutes depending on size
Cook Broccoli Florets
Water Sauté Mushrooms
I scrub my potatoes and just put them on a cookie sheet because I like when they are a bit dry, they can be wrapped in foil also. Serve with Cashew Sour Cream, salt and pepper.
I grew up cooking Broccoli in boiling water and I’ve tried a few other methods but to me they don’t work as well. There are a few tricks to it though, first you need enough water for two pounds I use 4 quarts of water in a 6 qt pot. Bring the water to a rolling hard boil. Dump in broccoli, stir once, wait a two minutes, stir again if it all looks hot remove and strain of water. You should have nice crisp bright green broccoli.
Trim bottoms of Mushrooms, or remove stems, dump in skillet, water sauté with a little salt and pepper till soft. Use a medium heat.
