Roasted Broccoli with Pine Nuts


I eat lots of veggies. I try to eat plenty of them raw, because you don't lose any vitamins or enzymes that way. I know how good my body feels when I eat lots of raw foods. But sometimes I just have to roast them. They caramelize into such delectable goodness! Broccoli is no exception. It's great with just olive oil and garlic, but I have tons of fresh basil in my garden, so this is another good way to use it. And pine nuts pair very well with this.

Roasted Broccoli with Pine Nuts
Preheat oven to 425. On cookie sheet place:
2 large bunches broccoli, washed, dried, and cut into florets, cut stems into 1" pieces
Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with sea salt and pepper, sprinkle
2 cloves of garlic, minced
over broccoli. Bake 25 min. till crisp-tender. Toss with:
2 T. pine nuts
3-4 fresh basil leaves, diced
