Parmesan Garlic Baked Broccoli

Steamed broccoli is great don't get me wrong but it is nice to have another healthy alternative such as this one. This broccoli is a big hit, I have made it when we have friends over for dinner and everyone raves about it. Good way to make a vegetable that has good flavor but is still healthy. The recipe yields one 13 x 9 pan that will serve 4 to 6.
