Roasted Broccoli and Red Bell Pepper

This was a great side item. I left out the salt and garlic. I think the garlic would have been fine, but was cooking for someone who doesn't care for it. I also used Smart Balance spray to coat veggies before sprinkling with pepper. I have just found that it makes it easier to coat evenly. Goes good with red meat, pork, chicken or fish.

Definitely needed more roasting time than 10 minutes probably closer to 15+.  We liked the garlic and red pepper combo.  Might make again.

I liked this recipe though I served it with the Two-cheese mac and cheese dish (which we didn't like). I will use it again with a different entree. I added some quartered red potatoes for hubby since he won't touch anything green and he liked it too.

Solid side dish recipe that cooks up in a flash - subbed out garlic powder for actual garlic to ensure even coating on the veggies, but otherwise made as directed. The cook time was a little shorter for me (~2-3 min) as I like my veggies (esp. broc) to be more crisp-tender than tender. Otherwise, I followed directions to a "t" and will keep this one in mind for side dishes in the future. Excellent choice to help brighten a meal with the suggested magazine "Two-Cheese Mac & Cheese" recipe in the same issue. Enjoy!

Was really good with a little Parmesan sprinkled on top after it came out of the oven.
