Ciao & welcome to my food blog!! My name is Lisa & I grew up loving authentic Italian fare, being that is my heritage. However, as I expand my travels & restaurant cuisine types, I have found a passion for ALL foods! I intend to share my enthusiasm in this blog with cooking stories, recipes, pictures, and reviews of my eating out adventures! Most of which are done with my husband, Greg!

mmm Broccoli mmmm

Another reason to love Pinterest, an amazing new broccoli recipe. I am definitely a broccoli lover and this hit the spot :)

It is easy and just adds a few new kicks to the traditional roasting broccoli recipe!!!! I dare you to try it, Greg and I gobbled it up faster than the chicken on our plate :) Honestly, I could have just eaten a bowl of this with rice or a potato!!!!!!! MMMMM! 
Ingredients:

Broccoli cut up into florets
olive oil (couple tablespoons, I just eye ball it)
salt/pepper to taste
fresh garlic- sliced (I did 1 clove but that was because I only had a smaller amount of broccoli)
1 lemon
Parmesan cheese- grated 

Directions:

Preheat oven at 425. Spread the broccoli on a sheet or casserole dish. Toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic. Toss together until thoroughly mixed. Roast in oven for about 20-25 minutes.

Zest some of the lemon onto the broccoli and also squeeze some lemon juice onto the broccoli. Sprinkle parmesan cheese and mix well. All that is left to do is mangia mangia!
