Oven Roasted Broccoli
Patricia @ ButterYum
I love to roast vegetables and this broccoli is a family favorite. The teens absolutely devour it - I can even get away with putting a platter full on the table for them to nibble on while doing their homework. How's that for a healthy after school snack? Frozen broccoli won't work here so be sure to get fresh. I can buy 3-pound bags of fresh pre-cut florets at Costco for $5; enough to fill 4 sheet pans.
Cut the florets in half and place them cut side down on a sheet pan that has been spritzed with olive oil (I roast vegetables so often that I have a dedicated roasting pan). Spritz the top of the florets with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Pop the pan into a preheated 425F oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the broccoli starts to caramelize.
Mmmm. Look at all that toasty goodness.
Enjoy!
