ROASTED PARMESAN BROCCOLI

I’m not sure I mentioned this but we’re livin’ large in Seattle this week. B’s sister and her husband are in Israel leading a tour of the holy land for their church, and we were chosen to be the Personal Assistants to my fabulous niece for the week.

We made a trip down to Pike Place Market yesterday while the baby girl was in school (btw she’s 16). We took in a few sights, hit a few antique shops and, well, had a (1-day) belated celebration of National Margarita Day at El Borracho. I feel as though it is my duty & obligation to celebrate any and all food holidays – a food blogger’s gotta do what a food blogg Today I have one more to add to the tasty veggie recipe lineup: Roasted Broccoli with Parmesan Cheese, Sliced Garlic and Lemon Zest! So delish and so perfect for this time of year. ’s gotta do.✌ Oh and of course there was the “original” Starbucks location… all in the name of food-related research.

It’s a small price to pay and I’m so good at it!!

I also like to think I’m pretty good at making veggies taste amazing. Like my balsamic glazed Brussels sprouts and white wine garlic green beans. Yummers!

t’s a pretty straight-forward recipe… you slice the broccoli into one-inch thick steaks, then season with salt, pepper, & chili pepper flakes and toss gently with some olive oil.

Bake for about 10 minutes, add thinly sliced garlic cloves, and then back into the hot box for 6 more minutes.Report this ad

Finally, sprinkle the broccoli with some Parmesan cheese – ’cause we can – and finish it off in the oven for about 2 more minutes. Dust it with some lemon zest, and indulge!
