Roasted Broccoli

Because I cooked salmon the night before, I wanted to pair it with something healthy and green. Broccoli or spinach is my usual go-to. This time I tried baking them instead of steaming. Never done this before but it was easy and turned out pretty good.

RECIPE adapted from Simply Recipes
2 lbs broccoli cut into florets
4 tbls olive oil
juice from half a lemon
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
3 garlic cloves
salt
pepper

1 Preheat the oven to 425°F. In a large bowl toss the broccoli florets and minced garlic with olive oil and lemon juice until lightly coated. Sprinkle salt over the broccoli and toss to coat.
2 Arrange the broccoli florets in a single layer on a greased or parchment lined baking sheet. Roast for 16-20 minutes, until cooked through and nicely browned.
3 Put the roasted broccoli back in the bowl and toss with lots of freshly ground black pepper and the grated parmesan cheese.
