May 18, 2018 by Faith Leave a Comment

Low-Carb Broccoli Stem Gratin is everything we love about a good gratin; it’s a rich, creamy, and cheesy side dish that you can pair with any number of things, from roast chicken to grilled steak. And bonus, this version uses broccoli stems so they don’t go to waste!
