Some kids love their veggies while others need a little coaxing. Roasting brings out the natural sweetness of broccoli, giving even pickier eaters a reason to try them. But just in case, we have sprinkled some Parmesan on top for good measure!
You Will Need:
1 large head of broccoli, cut into florets
1 tablespoon oil
½ teaspoon sea salt
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Make It:
Preheat oven to 400°F.
On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss broccoli, oil, and salt. Once broccoli is evenly coated, spread in a single layer and sprinkle with cheese. If desired, top with fresh ground black pepper.
Roast for 15-17 minutes until broccoli becomes crisp-tender and some of the florets have begun to brown.
Kids in the Kitchen: This is an easy recipe to get kids involved. Kids can drizzle on the oil, toss the broccoli on the baking sheet, sprinkle on the cheese, and even use the pepper mill. As an added bonus, when you allow your kids to help prepare their meal, they are more likely to give new foods and veggies a try.
