garlic roasted broccoli (or oh sweet mother broccoli).
How popular is broccoli at your house? Well if you’ve been serving steamed broccoli to a less-than-enthusiastic crowd, or you’re looking to spice up your broccoli life, you’re in luck.
Oh sweet mother. That’s what your family will be saying when you serve them this broccoli.
A friend with 2 quite active boys introduced me to a version of this recipe, and they happily ate their green trees (and so did we…again and again), so I knew I had a winner in this garlic roasted broccoli recipe!
Oh sweet mother.
That’s what we say when we enjoy this recipe, which is quite often (twice in the last week). Andrew says he could put down this broccoli like french fries.
Enough said.

I am jealous of your proximity to such fresh broccoli
Looks yummy!
Jennifer – we’ve got to get you somewhere closer to trader joes wine and fresh broccoli
I live in The Garden State, yet my county is considered a “food desert.” It’s very sad
However, soon it will be garden time, and I can grow my own fresh produce 
My 16 month old daughter just passed up pizza for more of this broccoli – thank you!!!
Kelly you get the award for first person to try this broccoli and respond. Kuddos to you! Glad your tiniest eater enjoyed it too.
