Notes
1. If you want your broccoli to stay bright green rather than turning more of an olive color, try blanching it for 2-3 minutes before roasting. 2. Into spicy food? Add some crushed pepper flakes for a little heat! 3. I use parsley because I always have it on hand, but other herbs would also be great like chives, thyme or basil.
