We picked up some broccoli at the farm yesterday, too, and I roasted it, along with some cauliflower I had. And we all loved it! What could be better than a fresh vegetable, olive oil, salt, and pepper? MMmmmmm. I've done this now with broccoli, cauliflower, kale, yellow squash, and carrots. Does it work with everything? I'm trying it with asparagus next!

Roasted Broccoli
1-2 bunches broccoli
1-3 tablespoons olive oil
salt, pepper
Preheat oven to 350F.
Cut broccoli into bite-size florets. Toss with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast on baking sheet for 20-30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Note: You can add herbs or even 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese (omitting the oil). I've noticed that oven temps very by vegetable, with carrots baking at 425. I imagine you can bake it anywhere between 350-425F as long as you watch them.
I am told that if you have a craving for chocolate it can be assuaged by eating some fresh brocolli. You try it first.
