Jenna's Treats & Eats: Broccoli Breadcrumbs

I fancy myself a pretty decent cook, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have slumps. Runs of new recipes that just don’t work and experiments of my own that flop. That’s why I’m thankful for recipes like this one for broccoli bread crumbs. It’s tried, it’s true and it comes out amazing every time. I love to top salmon with this mix but I’m sure it would be great with any protein.

Ingredients

1 ½ cups of broccoli florets

1 garlic clove

¼ parmesan cheese

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil for drizzling

Directions

- Preheat oven to 400 degrees, place broccoli florets on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

- Roast broccoli for 15 minutes or until it begins to brown slightly. Remove from oven at let broccoli cool for a few minutes.

- Toss broccoli, garlic and cheese into a food processor and pulse until it resembles breadcrumbs and no large chunks remain.

- If you’re using salmon top each piece with as much of the broccoli mixture as possible, pressing down to really pack it on. Bake at 400 for 15 minutes or until salmon is cooked through.

This recipe makes a fair bit, you’ll be able to top 4-6 pieces of salmon depending on their size. I like to save any extra and sprinkle it over pasta or zoodles the next day.

Enjoy!
