Popcorn Broccoli Recipe

Salt + pepper + avocado oil + garlic.  This, my friends, is a winning combination that will never let you down.

I pair this combination with my roasted broccoli on the regular to create a go-to side dish that will make your broccoli as delicious and as addictive as a bowl of popcorn.

It’s quick.  It’s simple. And yes, it just so happens to be be good for you (lol, don’t tell my kids!).

Sometimes we make double batch, toss it all in and big bowl and eat it with out fingers (it’s really that good!).

I’m telling you, once you try your broccoli this way, you will be  obsessed (in a very good way!).
