The Meyer lemon love fest continues. Last week, I posted a recipe for Chicken Soup with Orzo and Meyer Lemon. It was one of my most popular recipes to date. I'm not surprised because the recipe is super simple, freshly flavorful and healthy all at once. Plus, there's that radiant Meyer lemon sweet-sour kick. 

My Meyer lemon trees continue to bestow me with brilliant, sunshine-y yellow gifts. It's a banner year. These magical little lemons deserve a place in the ciaodonata sun. So, herewith, a super simple yet sumptuous recipe for Meyer Lemony Roasted Broccoli and Cauliflower. #dolcevitadelish. Enjoy!
