Roasted Broccoli

This roasted broccoli recipe is seasoned with garlic powder and onion powder creating a flavorful side dish in under 15 minutes.

When I was a kid I thought I didn’t like cooked broccoli. It turns out, I love cooked broccoli, I just don’t like over-cooked, slimy broccoli. Roasting broccoli for a short time at a high temperature is not only a quick and easy way to cook it, but creates a fork-tender broccoli floret that is still slightly firm. So if you have a child, friend, or spouse who doesn’t like the texture of cooked broccoli, give this oven-roasted cooking method a try.
