Healthy Recipes Lifestyle Diets Gut Healthy Roasted Broccolini with Lemon & Parmesan 4.5 (2) 2 Reviews Broccolini, a hybrid of conventional broccoli and gai lan, or Chinese broccoli, is perfect for roasting. Here, we add freshly grated Parmesan, which coats the florets and helps the cheese melt into every bite. If the pan seems crowded, divide the broccolini between 2 large rimmed baking sheets and roast in the upper and lower third positions of your oven, rotating between racks halfway through.

Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
