Tahini Parmesan Broccoli

This flavourful Tahini Parmesan Broccoli has ruined all other broccoli recipes for me! Perfectly roasted broccoli florets get tossed in a rich, lemony and garlicky tahini sauce, then wrapped up in a cheesy hug. Seriously what is not to love? Guaranteed it will convert the most staunch broccoli haters into lovers.
