I don’t know about you, but I get tired of eating steamed vegetables. Day-in and day-out! That’s why I absolutely LOVE to roast vegetables; even in the dog-days of summer I still turn my oven on. I know, I’m crazy! Next time you go to steam your broccoli try to roast it instead… you’ll be pleasantly surprised on how tasty it is!

Total: 30 minutes

I couldn't agree more! It gives a whole new dimension to the boring steamed veggie! I live in Florida where it is a constant 95 degrees outside… what's a few more degree's warmer going to harm! ha!
I love roasted vegetables. It always adds a smokey flavor to them. I am glad to see that I am not the only person heating up their house in the middle of summer.
