  3. Spread the seasoned broccoli in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Tips

  • 💡 For a spicy kick, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the seasoning mix before roasting.
  • 💡 If you prefer a deeper flavor, try using roasted garlic or garlic powder in the seasoning.
  • 💡 Feel free to experiment by adding other vegetables like cauliflower or Brussels sprouts, adjusting roasting time as needed.
