Roasted Broccoli

“Krista Kooks, this is the best broccoli I’ve ever had.”

Those are the words of my sous chef.  Need I say more?

Well, this is a blog, so yes, I do :)  Haha!  It’s all thanks to Aggie’s Kitchen that this is the best broccoli we’ve ever had.  We’ve actually already had it once again after these pictures were taken!  That’s because I ate all the broccoli the first time.  What?  I needed my daily servings of vegetables!

Ingredients:

1 head broccoli, cut in florets
1-2 tablespoons olive oil
sea salt or kosher salt
fresh ground pepper
1-2 garlic cloves, minced (optional)
red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions:

Toss broccoli florets with a little olive oil, salt and pepper (and some chopped garlic or red pepper flakes if you like). Roast in 400 degree oven for about 20 minutes or until slightly crisped and browned.
Krista Kooks’s highly suggests using the garlic and red pepper flakes.  Be sparing with the flakes as it can get spicy with just a 1/4 teaspoon.  Keep it at about 1/8 of a teaspoon for the flakes.

Enjoy eating your veggies!
