Have you ever made roasted broccoli? It is so simple and really delicious. I have to let you in on a little secret, but please don’t tell my kids, okay? I don’t really like broccoli, even though I eat it a lot. Well, I should adjust that comment, I don’t like steamed broccoli much (which is what broccoli used to be to me), but I LOVE roasted broccoli, and so do my kids. We have it with dinner a lot. The best part, it couldn’t be simpler to make! It is served as a perfect side dish to so many wonderful entrees. We have it with pasta, soup, chicken, beef, pork, well, you get the point!
Roasted Broccoli
- 2-3 heads of broccoli
- 1-2 Tbs. olive oil
- Salt and Pepper
Pre-heat the oven to 425 degrees.
Spread broccoli in a thin layer across a rimmed baking stone (or foil lined rimmed cookie sheet). Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Place broccoli in the oven and roast for 10-15 minutes, stirring once half way through, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
The kitchen is where I express myself. It is where I go when I need to process or escape. Cooking is my creative outlet and my stress reliever. When I am in my kitchen, my ingredients listen to me, they do what I want, and I can produce something that is satisfying, tasty, and healthy without it whining or talking back to me!
