Garlic Roasted Parmesan Broccoli

MyBodyMyKitchen

When it comes to broccoli, my go-to method of preparation is steaming it and drizzling a little olive oil.  This week for meal prep I decided to do something different.  I decided to roast my broccoli with garlic and pepper; I then added a sprinkling of freshly grated Parmesan cheese.  Yum! Try this recipe and let me know what you think. I thoroughly enjoyed it with some spinach turkey meatballs and protein pasta.
