Roasted Broccoli salad

Broccoli, high in fiber, vitamins A and C, and potassium, is also low in carbs, making it just right for keto eating. We love this versatile vegetable in stir-fries and in salads like this one, which pairs beautifully with chicken or meat.

Ingredients
  

  • pounds broccoli
  • 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil divided
  • 2 avocados 1 pound, halved, pitted, and cut into ½-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • ½ teaspoon table salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 4 ounces cherry tomatoes quartered
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh basil

Instructions
 

  • Adjust oven rack to lowest position, place rimmed baking sheet on rack, and heat oven to 500 degrees. Cut broccoli horizontally at juncture of crowns and stalks. Cut crowns into 4 wedges if 3 to 4 inches in diameter or 6 wedges if 4 to 5 inches in diameter. Trim tough outer peel from stalks, then cut into ½-inch-thick planks about 2 to 3 inches long.

Roast until stalks are well browned and tender and florets are lightly browned, 9 to 11 minutes. Transfer broccoli to cutting board, let cool slightly, then cut into 1½-inch pieces.
  • Process remaining 2 tablespoons oil, half of avocado, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper in food processor until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl as needed; transfer to large serving bowl. Add
  • broccoli, remaining avocado, tomatoes, and basil and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve.
