Roasted Broccoli

Sorry, I have been bad about taking pictures of the food lately. I make our plates and we sit down to eat. Next thing you know my plate doesn't look too appetizing to capture a picture of.

I haven't cooked broccoli in who knows when. I am not a huge fan b/c it gets cold so fast and then I felt like it only had good flavor when soaked in butter. Since I was experimenting with my honey & herb chicken, I decided to go ahead and just add a few things to the broccoli and roast in the oven to get it a little crunchy. 

I don't ever really measure ingredients when I cook. I just go based off of the look of the amount so below is about my estimation. 

Ingredients:

1 bunch of broccoli cut into pieces

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4-1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes (depending on how much broccoli you use and how spicy you want it)

salt and pepper

3 garlic cloves, minced (unless you like thicker pieces)

What To Do:

• Preheat oven to 400F
• In a small bowl, mix together the garlic, salt and pepper, red pepper flakes and olive oil
• Once mixed, toss in your broccoli and mix to coat all of it
• Spread the broccoli out on a foil covered cookie sheet
• Cook for about 15 minutes (this makes the broccoli soft with a little bit of crunch to it. Cook longer if you want it more soft or cook less for more of a crunch.
