Cubano Roasted Broccoli Florets
This low-carb side dish pairs up great with a main protein, and adds a little kick to a nutrient-packed super food! This simple roasted broccoli dish should do the trick. The cumin and lime add spice and citrus to provide a tangy Caribbean flavor.
Ingredients
- 3 cloves garlic (peeled and thinly sliced)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 Tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or avocado oil
- 16 ounces broccoli cut into florets and pieces
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
