Monotask

Crispy broccoli, chickpeas, and fresh goat cheese
1 bunch of broccoli rabe (full sliced florets with stalks attached) rinsed and trimmer
1 can chickpeas
2 cloves garlic, sliced
3 TBSP olive oil
course salt
2 ounces fresh, soft goat cheese, crumbled
crushed red pepper flakes
2 TBSP fresh lemon juice

Heat the broiler.  Toss the broccoli, chickpeas, and garlic with the oil.  I always do this in a large plastic bag.  Salt to taste.  Broil for 2 minutes, then flip and broil until crisp and tender.  Serve topped with cheese and pepper flakes.  Add lemon juice and drizzle with oil.  Even my kids eat broccoli with this recipe!
                                                   

Over the next few days, I challenge you to "monotask."  Multitasking, or juggling several things at once can be ineffective at best.  Take on one engaging conversation, one chore, one workout, one meal each at their own time.  Do not do anything else.  Don't look at the time, the phone, the TV or the next task.  Enjoy the time with that one thing and be thankful to be alive!
