I love vegetables in all forms, however roasting vegetables brings out the most amazing flavors in them and this is true especially with broccoli.
Roasted broccoli is beautiful. Serve this as a healthy and delicious side dish with your next meal.
Oh…and I think cheese makes most anything taste better, so enjoy a liberal amount of parmesan with your broccoli!
