I made this as directed except cut it down for the two of us. I thought the sauce was a little bland. Needed some type of seasoning, at least salt and pepper. I think next time I'll use fresh broccoli when available. All in all a nice side dish. Thanks

Very good and easy side dish. I cut the recipe in half. I cut down on the butter and added a few splashes of milk in its place, just to help cut a bit of the fat down. Very creamy and rich side dish. But everything does taste better with a bit of Velveeta on it! ;-) Thanks for posting your recipe. I enjoyed this very much. Made for 123 wonders tag game.

this made a great quick lunch today, along with some salad. I used one medium carrot cut up and halved the recipe. Thanks!
