Roasted Broccoli Recipes Even a Toddler will Love

I love this recipe because it brings a whole new flavor to broccoli, and it’s also a hit with my toddler – he can’t get enough!

If you’re not a big fan of broccoli, this recipe could easily convert you! Did you know that roasting broccoli will bring out a sweeter, caramelized flavor? That flavor compliments many types of meat and seafood. Also, it’s good for you! One cup of broccoli is a good source of Vitamin A and B6 and an excellent source of Vitamin C.
