Roasted Lemon Broccoli is a fantastically simple and healthy way to enjoy broccoli any time of year. Roasting broccoli brings out rich deep flavors unlike anything you will get from steaming or boiling it and the addition of lemon zest adds a bright freshness to the dish. Pair it with a seasoned chicken breast or a grilled steak for a simple and healthy weeknight meal.
I personally struggle to get green vegetables in my day to day diet. I am more than happy to eat things like tomatoes, onions, corn etc. but I struggle to get my daily dose of green veggies such as broccoli, asparagus, beans, etc. I will gladly east broccoli dipped in a thick creamy ranch sauce, but I’m pretty sure that negates most of the nutritional benefits at that point. Steaming and boiling broccoli don’t do much for me either, unless they are smothered in cheese. But again those darn nutritional benefits…
