Ingredients

Italian Herb Roasted Broccoli ingredients
  • Broccoli: I love to include the bulk of the stalk with my broccoli, but you can also do just the florets.
  • Olive oil: Helps the herbs to stick, and the broccoli get an even roast in the oven.
  • Italian herbs: You can use a preset mix of Italian herbs and ،es, or make your own like I do! I like to use oregano, rosemary, basil, fennel seeds, and some chili flakes for some heat.
  • Parmesan cheese: Adds a great nutty, salty flavor to the final dish.
