Roasted Parmesan Broccoli

After the Cheesy Asparagus Fries went over so well…I was ready to play around with broccoli!

I’ll be honest, I may have loved this recipe even more. And that says a lot. My broccoli was ready before my main dish and I kept sneaking bites! But it’s broccoli….I didn’t even feel bad!! :)

The secret here is to steam the broccoli before you move to the oven. I used my handy dandy Micro Cooker from The Pampered Chef and microwaved my fresh broccoli for about 4 minutes. This moves the process along quickly!
