Morning Broccoli with Balsamic & Lemon

Catherine BarclayCatherine Barclay
A bright, simple morning ritual made from steamed broccoli, a mist of balsamic, and a generous squeeze of lemon. What started as an experiment has become a daily essential — a fibre-rich, vitamin-packed bowl that wakes up digestion, steadies energy, and delivers a clean, refreshing start to the day. Strange at first, indispensable now.
