Simple Roasted Broccoli with Garlic
Broccoli is probably my number one superfood! Its high in fiber, vitamin C which aids in absorbing Iron, magnesium, potassium, and many other nutrients! It is a go-to of mine when I want to boost my immune system, and feel good (and its delicious). In the past I’ve loved to steam broccoli, or sauté it. My newest obsession — Roasting it with garlic and olive oil. Yes, its that simple. The taste is amazing with little flavor pockets of roasted garlic, and the crispy edges and soft centers is the perfect texture. Check out the recipe below!
