Bring a pot of water to a boil and set up a steamer basket. Steam the broccoli florets for 4-5 minutes until they are tender and vibrant green. Immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process, then drain well.

Blend the mixture until smooth. If necessary, add the olive oil and water, one tablespoon at a time, to achieve a creamy consistency.

Step 4

If desired, fold in the diced red onion and jalapeño for added texture and flavor.

Step 5

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lime juice as needed.

Step 6

Serve immediately with tortilla chips, vegetable sticks, or as a spread on sandwiches or wraps. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
