Roasted Broccoli and Cauliflower with Cheese made on a sheet pan lined with foil for easy clean-up. A simple low-carb veggie side dish.


Ingredients

Scale

5 cups broccoli florets

5 cups cauliflower florets

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

generous pinch each nutmeg and cayenne

1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, about 2 ounces

1/4 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment, aluminum foil or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Toss broccoli, cauliflower, oil, salt, pepper, nutmeg and cayenne in a large bowl until coated. Spread on the prepared baking sheet.

Notes

To Prepare Broccoli and Cauliflower for Roasting:

Wash well and dry thoroughly by shaking and patting dry or using a salad spinner.

Cut broccoli and cauliflower into florets of equal size and spread out on the baking sheet in a single layer for even cooking.
