Roasted Broccoli & Bacon Alfredo

Ingredients

• 8 cups broccoli florets
• 1/4 cup avocado oil
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 2 tbsp butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/8 tsp pepper
• Pinch salt
• 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, toss broccoli with oil, salt and pepper. Spread out in a single layer on prepared baking sheet. Roast 20 to 30 minutes, depending on how dark you like it.
3. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Reduce heat to low, add the cream, pepper, and salt and bring to just a simmer. Add Parmesan and continue to cook until thickened, about 3 or 4 minutes.
