(Garlic Broccoli Salad, Broccoli Side-dish)

Garlic Broccoli is one of my favorite recipes. It is so simple to put together and tastes very good. No need to mention that this preparation is healthy too. I make it often as a side dish whenever I make burger or sandwich. You can also have it as a simple salad if you are on diet.
I just make it very easily in the microwave. It is perfect to make for lunch boxes too.
