Ingredients

• 1 head red cauliflower
• 1 head broccoli
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic cloves
• 1.5 teaspoons smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Cut the red cauliflower and broccoli into evenly sized florets. Rinse them under cold water and pat dry with a clean towel.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mince the garlic cloves. Mix the garlic with the olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to form a seasoning mixture.

Step 4

Place the cauliflower and broccoli florets in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the seasoning mixture over the vegetables and toss well to ensure they are evenly coated.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned florets onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding, as this ensures even roasting.

Step 6

Roast in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping the florets halfway through cooking, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 7

Once roasted, remove the vegetables from the oven. Drizzle with freshly squeezed lemon juice and sprinkle with chopped parsley for garnish.

Step 8

Serve immediately as a side dish or enjoy it as a healthy snack on its own.
