Ingredients
  

Roasted Broccoli  

  • 1 large head of broccoli cut into florets
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil

Caesar Dressing:

  • ¼ cup tahini 60 g
  • ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp capers finely chopped
  • 2 tsp caper juice
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ tsp each salt and pepper
  • 2 Tbsp cold water

Toppings:

  • ½ cup Fresh grated parmesan
  • 1 container Blue Diamond Bold almonds - I like Habanero BBQ Elote Mexican-Style Street Corn, and Sriracha, and Sweet Thai Chili. All so good and work great in this recipe.

Instructions
 

Roast Broccoli

  • Preheat your oven to 450°
  • Arrange broccoli florets on a baking sheet
  • Drizzle everything evenly with about 1 Tbsp olive oil, tossing to coat.
  • Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes or until broccoli is tender.
  • If not charred yet, switch your oven to "broil for 1 to 2 minutes to allow broccoli to develop char at the edges (watch closely, it will burn quickly).

Dressing

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together ¼ cup tahini, ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt, 2 Tbsp lemon juice, 2 tsp capers, 2 tsp caper juice, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 3 cloves garlic (minced), ¼ tsp each salt and pepper, and 2 Tbsp cold water (may need more depending on how thin you want the sauce)

Assemble

  • Transfer cooked broccoli in a large bowl
  • Top with dressing, nuts and a little shredded parmesan cheese!
  • Serve and enjoy!
