Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450° F. Prepare a 9 x 13 inch baking pan by spraying it with non-stick pan spray. Or line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and spray with pan spray.
- To make marinade, combine olive oil and fresh lemon juice in a small bowl. Add minced garlic, kosher salt, and cracked pepper and set aside.
- Cut broccoli and cauliflower into florets of similar size. You can use the longer broccoli stems too. Place into a large bowl.
- Swirl the marinade to mix the ingredients together again and pour all but 1 Tbsp. onto the broccoli and cauliflower. Sprinkle 1 Tbsp. of grated parmesan into the bowl. Toss all ingredients together until the marinade and parmesan cheese are distributed evenly. I find it easiest to use my hands to do this.
- Spread the broccoli and cauliflower mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with remaining parmesan.
- Bake at 450° F for 20 to 25 minutes or just until fork-tender. Remove from oven and drizzle with remaining marinade. Serve immediately

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER, BROCCOLI, AND GARLIC
A whole head of garlic is roasted along with broccoli florets and cauliflower, basically making your appetizer and side dish in the same pan. Now, do not be alarmed when you get to the part where the foil comes off and you look at the very dark colored broccoli...after the final 30 minutes of roasting, the veggies are so tender and delicious. I normally only like my broccoli to be crisp tender and bright green, but in this recipe I thought the taste made up for its less attractive color.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Place cauliflower and broccoli into a 9 X 13 inch baking dish, toss with the about 2 Tbsp of olive oil, and sprinkle with salt.
- Cut a bit of the top and sides off the unpeeled whole garlic head, exposing as many of the cloves as possible.
- Tuck the garlic head into one corner of the same pan and drizzle the head with the remaining 1 Tbsp olive oil (I also pick out any slivers of garlic from the parts I trimmed off and toss them into the pan with the veggies).
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 1/2 hour.
- Remove the cover, stir just the florets and cook for 30 minutes more, until vegetables are tender and nicely browned (yes, the broccoli will be a very dark green).
- Meanwhile, slice baguette bread into thin bias-cut ovals.
- Toast in a toaster oven until lightly toasted (to your liking).
- When the veggies are ready, serve the florets in a serving dish, and place the garlic head onto a plate surrounded by your toasted bread ovals; remove some of the garlic using a butter knife and spread on slices as a paste.

BROCCOLI OR CAULIFLOWER WITH GARLIC AND LEMON, TWO WAYS
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add salt. Plunge the vegetable into the boiling water and cook until fairly tender, 3 to 6 minutes, depending on the size of your pieces. Drain and plunge into a bowl of ice water or run under cold water. Drain again.
- Put 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, if using, and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is golden, about 3 minutes. Add the drained vegetable and turn the heat to high. Cook, stirring only when necessary-you don't want the broccoli to fall apart-until the vegetable begins to brown; add the lemon zest and cook for another minute or two.
- Add the remaining olive oil and the lemon juice, taste and adjust the seasoning, and serve hot or at room temperature.
- Alternative method
- Skip step 1. In step 2, start with 1/4 cup olive oil (and, if you like, add a dried chile). Thirty seconds after adding the garlic, add the broccoli or cauliflower and 1/4 cup water. Cover the pan. Cook, uncovering and stirring occasionally, until the vegetable is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning and serve.
Tips:
- To save time, use pre-cut broccoli and cauliflower florets.
- For a more flavorful dish, roast the vegetables at a high temperature (425°F or 220°C) for a shorter amount of time.
- If you like your vegetables crispy, spread them out in a single layer on the baking sheet.
- Add some grated Parmesan cheese or crumbled feta cheese to the roasted vegetables for a cheesy twist.
- For a smoky flavor, roast the vegetables with a few cloves of garlic and a sprig of rosemary.
- Serve the roasted vegetables immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Roasted broccoli and cauliflower with lemon and garlic is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make side dish. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables! With its simple ingredients and versatile flavor, this dish is sure to become a family favorite.
