Roasted Broccoli, Cauliflower, and Leeks



Sometimes we just eat a bunch of side dishes for dinner. It's kind of weird, but it can lead to a really delicious meal. We were due to have one of those nights so I was looking through my fridge for what we needed to use. I found a small bunch of broccoli, a head of cauliflower, a large leek, and a lemon. What can you do with that? Roast it of course! And know what? It was totally delicious. I highly recommend it. The vegetables were bright and flavorful, just like the colors. It was a clean dish, and totally healthy. 


Ingredients

1 bunch broccoli, cut into florets
1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
1 leek, halved and sliced
1 lemon
