Super Bowl Sunday is a pretty carb heavy today, and I didn't do us any favors making waffles for breakfast. No matter, because I made this low calorie, low carb lunch. It's packed with produce and the individual ingredients all sing with little added seasoning.

Add in the banana blossom and fry for 5 minutes to soften the banana blossom.
Pour in the coconut milk and coconut aminos, season with salt and pepper and bring to the boil. Place a lid on top to cover half the pan and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring once or twice.
Meanwhile, steam the broccoli until tender and prepare the cucumber and herbs.
