Crispy Parmesan Broccoli Sticks
This crispy parmesan trend has been used so many times over because it makes your vegetables taste incredible. And these broccoli stalks are no exception.
My parents and grandparents used to really push the raw stalks on me as a child. To be honest, I was never a fan of the taste, but I ate them because I liked the crunchy texture and my family was adamant! So many nutrients and health benefits!
If you like this recipe then you will love my Crispy Parmesan Carrot Sticks, my Crispy Parmesan Cauliflower Steaks or my Crispy Parmesan Potatoes. The key to this recipe is not to slice them too thin or too thick.

Hi Sylvie, absolutely yes! I love them warmed up!
How do you keep it from not sticking to the pan? I followed the directions to the T and all my Parmesan stuck to the pan and I had to scrape off my broccoli stems off the pan with no cheese stuck on them.

Hi Sally, glad you tried it and loved it! Thanks for the kind rating!
I love your recipes, but this one is a plus because it allows me to use a part of brocoli that I usually throw away. It’s delicious and low carb. Perfect side dish. Ty!
