Garlic Roasted Broccoli

By REBECCA BOHL

 Ingredients:

• 2 heads of broccoli, cut into florets
• 3 tbsp melted coconut oil (UPDATE: I use this organic coconut oil)
• 5 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)

Method: 

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
2. In a large bowl, toss the broccoli with melted coconut oil, salt, black pepper and garlic. Spread the broccoli in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
3. Bake until florets are tender enough to pierce with a fork and the edges are browning, about 15 minutes. Turn once halfway through the baking process and add red pepper flakes, if using. After baking, squeeze lemon juice liberally over the broccoli before serving.
