VEGETARIAN WEEK RECIPE #1: MY OVEN BROILED GREEK TZATZIKI BROCCOLI as a SIDE DISH

Sick and tired of eating broccoli the same way forever? Yes, I was too until I decided to coat it with Tzatziki sauce (which I used in a lot of dishes instead of mayo), lemon pepper, hot sauce, chopped garlic, and broil the florets. The result was surprisingly flavorful and good looking for a side dish, smile. (Some vegetarians eat fish, therefore, you could use fish to pair with your broccoli as well).
