Then, cut them down into florets (small/individual bite-sized pieces). Lay them out on a sheet pan with parchment paper to freeze them before bagging them up into individual servings (or however you'd like to store them). Once you pull them out of the freezer, you can steam them, roast them, or cook them however you want.
