Cooking Steps
Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Wash and dry produce. Cut broccoli into bite-size pieces.
Toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of cooking oil, salt, and pepper.
Roast on middle rack until lightly browned and crisp, 15-20 minutes, tossing halfway through.
In the last 1-2 minutes of cooking, sprinkle broccoli with Mexican cheese blend and continue roasting until cheese has melted.
Recipe Suggestion: In step 3, toss broccoli with oil, salt, pepper, and Southwest Spice.

Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavor: Some loved the classic combo, while others found it basic. Try adding Southwest spice for a flavor boost 🌶️.
- Ease of prep: Simple to prepare, though a few wished for more detailed instructions on roasting and cheese melting.
- Suggestions: Consider making a creamy sauce with almond milk and cream cheese. Topping with crunchy fried panko adds nice texture.
- Portions: Some found the broccoli amount insufficient for four servings; adjust quantity as needed for your household.
Reviews from our home cooks
I made your shrimp with the broccoli and cheese. Topped it with crunchy fried panko crumbs. Pretty darn good idea I had to pair them up!
Broccoli and cheese is one my favorite side dishes and this made it so much easier!!
Wow this was so good! The advice about adding the southwest spice seasoning really enhanced the flavor.
Don't always have to offer the cheese. This veggie is good roasted with some avocado oil and sea salt. Thanks.
The quality of the broccoli was really good this time.
I made cheese sauce. I thought it was broccoli and cheese sauce. It's broccoli and cheese. I made it work. 👍🏾
Didn't even use the cheese, broccoli was great roasted by itself.
A little dry so I added a splash of almond milk and 4 Oz of cream cheese and made it creamy. Excellent with those additions
Actually ate the broccoli and cheese separately in our meal plan- kids don't like cheese on broccoli! Go figure!
Easy but some of the broccoli had to be thrown away due to mushy/slimy pieces
