The Many Faces of Broccoli

I remember steering away from broccoli as a child, but I really have come to appreciate this vegetable. Last night I made broccoli ginger stir fry for dinner, and although I enjoyed it very much, my little sister still stubbornly refused to touch it. If vegetables are prepared correctly, they can be so much more than the tough, bland, tasteless morsels that many children imagine them to be. I guess I have learned to love most vegetables, but I still have not managed to convince my little sister. I was wondering why children are so averse to vegetables. How do all of you feel about broccoli? Do you prefer it raw, cooked, with cheese, with dressing, or in other dishes?

Here is my dinner recipe from last night in case any of you want to try it:
Ingredients (I never really measure, I'm just guessing)-
4 cups of broccoli florets
1/2 a red pepper, sliced into strips
1 large carrot, peeled and chopped
2 cloves of garlic, chopped finely
1/2 teaspoon ginger, minced
olive oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
salt to taste
Directions-
put the broccoli in a microwave safe container with a little bit of water and microwave for 2 minutes. Cook broccoli in olive oil in a wok on medium heat. Add the rest of the vegetables, and once they are cooked (but not mushy) add the sauces. I usually just taste it to tell what I want to add more of. Serve with rice, if desired, and enjoy!
