Roasted Cheddar Broccoli
Cheesy broccoli, topped with a crunchy bread topping. Yum!
Note: Roasted broccoli has a dry texture. If you prefer a moister broccoli, steam the broccoli, then continue with tossing in olive oil and finish in a 350° oven for 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and crumbs are crispy.
