Roasted broccolini

This recipe checks all the boxes down to perfect side dishes: easy, delicious, crispy, and salty—not to mention ready to eat in 20 minutes! Why broccolini, not broccoli? Because the first one can boast of having lanky little florets, which means there is more surface area for browning and more tender superiority for eating. 

Besides, it is high in fiber. Fiber keeps you full for more extended periods, helps you digest food properly, and prevents constipation. Also, you can get protein from broccolini, too. One cup of broccolini has the same amount of protein you'd find in a cup of basmati rice! The main difference is that broccolini has about half the calories of that cup of rice. Isn't it fantastic for your weight-loss diet?

So now you can try, without any hesitations, one of our favorite veggie side dishes, this tender broccolini, which is delightfully crisp out of the oven. It can be combined with steak, chicken, or whatever else is on your plate!
