Roasted garlic broccoli is a superbly easy, nutritionally packed, delicious snack. Snacking on broccoli might be worlds apart from the norm, but the more you start loving natural foods, the more you’ll love snacks like this!  You can make them in batches and store them in refrigerator for one or two days and eat them as you desire. The recipe is simple. Toss some large florets of broccoli and bake in a high heat oven. The natural sugar of broccoli caramelizes in the process of roasting and makes the dish delicious. The same process can be done with cauliflower, too. For variety, you may want to combine both.
