Balsamic Roasted Broccoli and Cherry Tomatoes
This is a super easy and delicious way to enjoy broccoli and tomatoes while they are in season at the same time. What I love about this combo is how the juice from the tomatoes mingles with the balsamic vinegar and olive oil and gets trapped in the nooks and crannies of the broccoli florets.

Ingredients
- 1 pound broccoli crowns cut into florets and stems sliced
