This will teach you How to Make Broccoli in the Oven - it's so simple and delicious, too!
In our house, broccoli is usually only cooked one way - steamed, tossed with oil, vinegar and Italian seasonings, and eaten cold. This is how my husband has been eating it since he was a little boy. But here's the thing, I don't care for vinegar, and I really don't like my food cold.
When he came home the other night to see me pulling broccoli out of the oven, I was already prepared for the look of skepticism I got. I reminded him about the Bacon and Garlic Cauliflower Mash he didn't want to eat but gobbled up, too!
FAQ About Roasted Broccoli
Here are some frequently asked questions about how to make broccoli in the oven:
Not only is broccoli high in fiber, low in calories and carbs, but it is also rich in vitamin C, K, and A, folate, calcium, and iron.
