Roasted Balsamic Broccoli with Parmesan

🥦🧀😍 Even people who don't like to eat their veggies will LOVE broccoli prepared this way! Easy, healthy, and full of flavor from the balsamic and Parmesan!

📝 Ingredients

• about 1 pound broccoli florets (trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil (or to save calories and fat spray with olive oil cooking spray)
• 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)
• about 2 to 4 tablespoons balsamic reduction] or glaze
• about 2 to 4 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese (to taste)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat oven to 450F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easier cleanup.
2. 2Season Broccoli: Add the broccoli to the baking sheet, evenly drizzle with olive oil (or spray with olive oil), season with salt and pepper to taste, and toss with your hands to evenly coat. Allow space between the florets and don’t keep them in a tight pile so that they roast rather than steam.
3. 3Roast Broccoli: Roast for about 12 minutes, or until the broccoli is browning on the underside.
4. 4Flip Broccoli: Remove baking sheet from oven, flip broccoli over with tongs, and evenly drizzle with balsamic to taste.
5. 5Bake: Return baking sheet to oven and bake for about 3 to 5 minutes, or until as dark as desired. Baking times will vary based on the size of the florets, personal preference for doneness, oven and climate variances, etc. Keep a close eye on it because it can go from underdone to nicely blacked to burnt in just a couple minutes.
6. 6Add Cheese: Evenly sprinkle with Parmesan to taste and serve immediately. Broccoli is best warm and fresh.
