1 tsp salt

1/3 of a nutmeg, grated

4 tbsp Greek yogurt (more if you're not using cream cheese)

3/4 cup ground almonds

3 tbsp lemon juice

 

Non-pantry: broccoli, cream cheese, greek yogurt, almonds, lemon juice

 

Preheat oven to 400, line 2 pans with parchment. Mix everything but the broccoli, then add the broccoli and mix well with your hands. Roast 10 min, turn, roast 10 min more or until it's a little charred and tender.
