Asiago Roasted Broccoli

Asiago Roasted Broccoli – thinly sliced broccoli florets baked with Asiago cheese on top. Crusty, crunchy, delicious side dish or just a snack to crunch on! Healthy, gluten free recipe.

Because broccoli is sliced thinly, the Asiago cheese roasted broccoli florets are crunchy and super addictive!

Make sure to slice each broccoli floret horizontally into thin, flat slices, coat them with olive oil and lay in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle salt evenly over all of broccoli, making sure not to miss any (use at least 1/4 teaspoon salt, or more).  Sprinkle with black pepper, too.  Roast for 15 minutes, then remove from the oven and sprinkle with grated Asiago cheese:

Bake for another 5 or 10 minutes, until the cheese melts:

The broccoli should be slightly browned and very crunchy. Taste and add salt if needed – it’s really important to add enough salt to broccoli for it to taste really delicious. Enjoy!
