Spicy Roasted Broccoli and Feta Salad

This is one of my go-to salads come colder winter months. I love the warmth that the roasted spicy broccoli brings to a bowl of veggies. It is incredibly easy to throw together and a great salad to prep ahead of time if that's your jam. I will usually make a couple servings and throw it together during a busy week. Its simple yet addicting.
