Comments: 1/28/2019 - I used juice from 1/2 lemon, but forgot the final tablespoon of olive oil.
1/10/2023 - I followed the recipe except I omitted the lemon juice. I liked it.
2/25/2023 - I followed the recipe with 25 minutes in the oven, except I omitted the lemon juice and final tablespoon of oil.
5/17/2025 - I used about 13 oz of frozen broccoli pieces, mostly defrosted. Otherwise, I followed the recipe with 25 minutes in the toaster oven, except I omitted the lemon juice and final tablespoon of oil. I used 2 teaspoons of garlic powder and about 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
