Amazing Roasted Broccoli - from our Newsletter

If your nose wrinkles at the thought of serving broccoli with your meal, then this recipe is about to rock your world! Tough, bland, soulless broccoli, beware…this recipe for Amazing Roasted Broccoli is seriously delicious!

What makes it taste so amazing? First, we cut the florets in half, vertically, in order to create a nice flat side for maximum roasting area. Second, we toss it with flavor-packed minced garlic. Third, we roast it at a very high temperature, 450 F, until each floret is charred on the outside and tender on the inside. And finally, we sprinkle some fresh lemon juice right before serving. Perfection!
