To keep your broccoli a brighter green, keep a close eye on it once it has been added into your slow cooker. Serve promptly, once desired level is reached

Please refer to the above write up for serving and storing ideas

If you would like a thicker sauce, try cooking with lid off for the last 30 -60 minutes to allow for some evaporation. Alternatively, you can make a cornstarch slurry by mixing 2 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoon water. Stir this into the content in your slow cooker about 30 minutes prior to serving.
