Ingredients

  • 1 pound broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F. Cover a baking sheet with foil and grease well with cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together broccoli and olive oil, coating the broccoli as well as possible.
  3. Spread broccoli evenly over the prepared baking sheet.
  4. In a small bowl, mix Parmesan, panko, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and optional red pepper flakes. Sprinkle mixture evenly over the top of the broccoli.
  5. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until broccoli is tender.
  6. Serve and enjoy.

Notes

  • *For crunchier panko, you can toast it like I did here. Spray a frying pan with a little cooking spray and let the panko brown, stirring occasionally until toasted. I like my broccoli with a bit of a bite to it, so I cut large florets. If you prefer more tender broccoli, you can cut yours into smaller, bite-sized pieces. And if you have kids who will only eat their broccoli soft (I was one of those!!), you can parboil it before roasting.
