    Italian Roasted Broccoli features broccoli tossed in Italian dressing, roasted to perfection and then topped with Parmesan cheese crumbles. So simple and delicious!

    I am so excited to announce that my 16 year old daughter will now eat broccoli! She has never liked it, but now she will eat it every way I make it (so far). Even this Italian Roasted Broccoli, and that actually surprised me.

    I guess that whole “keep giving the food to them until they will eat it” theory works.

    At least this time, with this food, and it took many years.

    Now if I could get her to eat zucchini and cauliflower I will have accomplished something.

    Maybe if I put cheese on them?

    I was trying to come up with a recipe for roasted broccoli with olive oil, herbs and spices.

    I have eaten steamed broccoli with Italian dressing on it for many years, so I thought why not put the dressing on it before I put it in the oven.

    There are so many great herbs and spices in the dressing that it just seemed like a cheap and easy solution.

    Since everything is better with cheese I decided to top the roasted yummy goodness with Parmesan cheese.

    This Italian Roasted Broccoli will now be on my list of vegetable side dishes.

    I will probably make it a couple of times a month.

    This Italian Roasted Broccoli would go really well with a meat entree’ and these Roasted Ranch Potaotoes or these Herb Roasted Red Potatoes since they all cook at the same temperature.

      Gonna try that roasted Brocolli. Just one thing… You say… Prep 5 mins. Cook 20 mins. Total time 18 mins? 20 + 5 = 18. Hmmm.

        Looks like I miscalculated, I better go edit the recipe. The funniest thing about this is I work in an accounting department and do math for a living. Thanks for the heads up!

      I had some roasted broccoli and cauliflower for the lunch today. Roasting brings out the best flavours of veggies! Yours with Italian hard cheese sounds even more tempting!
