About Roasted Broccoli

Roasted Broccoli is made by first tossing broccoli florets in olive oil, melted butter, garlic, salt and pepper then baking it until golden and crisp. This is a delicious and healthy starter that can be paired up as a side dish too. Roasted broccoli is so easy to make just toss and dump it in oven and relax, your oven roasted broccoli is ready with minimum effort!
