Ingredients

• 500 grams broccoli florets
• 500 grams cauliflower florets
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Wash the broccoli and cauliflower florets thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to ensure crisp roasting.

Step 3

Place the broccoli and cauliflower florets in a large mixing bowl.

Step 4

Drizzle the olive oil over the florets and toss them gently to ensure they are evenly coated.

Step 5

Sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the vegetables. Toss again until the seasonings are well distributed.

Step 6

Spread the seasoned broccoli and cauliflower in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even roasting.

Step 7

Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping the florets halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and, if desired, sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese for an extra touch of flavor.

Step 9

Serve warm as a delicious side dish or enjoy on its own for a light and wholesome snack.
