Healthy Snack: Baked Broccoli

A few weeks ago I baked broccoli for the first time. The kids loved it. Understand, my kids are not vegetable fans. Jasmine will eat broccoli, but the others grumble. There was no grumbling about the baked broccoli.

We tried it two different ways. 

First:

Raw broccoli rinsed. Allow time to dry. It doesn't cook well if it's wet.

Garlic cloves--however much you want. Your guess depending on your preference. After chopping real garlic cloves a few times, I started cheating and buying it in the jar. 

Salt 

Pepper

Olive oil -- 2T to 1/4 cup depending on how much broccoli you have

Put all ingredients in a large bag or bowl and shake.

Bake in a single layer on a cookie sheet at 400F for 15-20

minutes

You can shake it in a bag.

Or mix it in a bowl. This bowl has a lid, so we shook it.

Second:

Raw broccoli rinsed and dried

1/4 olive oil

1-2 t garlic powder or fresh garlic

2T brown sugar

1-2T lemon juice

1/2-1t cayenne pepper

salt 

pepper

Put all ingredients in a large bag or bowl and shake.

Bake in a single layer on a cookie sheet at 400F for 15-20

minutes

Anyone else have a baked broccoli recipe or any other healthy snack ideas?
