Broccoli so delicious, even your picky eater will love it!

I love that I found this recipe online. Here's where I found it: http://www.amateurgourmet.com/2008/11/the_best_brocco.html

This chef got the recipe from The Barefoot Contessa, Ina Garten.

It's wasn't easy to get Emma to eat broccoli, until now. Definitely the best broccoli I've ever had, I won't make it any other way.

Ingredients
4 large bunches of broccoli 
Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper
4 cloves of sliced garlic
lemon, zest and juice
1/3 C freshly grated parmesan cheese
pinenuts (optional)
julienned basil (option)


Directions
Wash and thoroughly dry your broccoli. I don't wash mine, the oven should be hot enough to kill the bacteria. Cut into large florets. In a large bowl, toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and sliced garlic. Spread on a foil lined cookie sheet. Put in pre-heated oven (425 degrees Fahrenheit) and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until florets are crisp and tender and some of the tips are browning. Once finished cooking, toss with fresh lemon zest, lemon juice, more olive oil, and parmesan cheese.

Enjoy this healthy dish, you won't be able to get enough of it!
