This was very tasty! I was unsure of how much broccoli to use. I didn't know if small box was the size or a large bag. I had to use fresh broccoli so I used about 3/4 of a bunch, guessing at the ounce amount. Next time i might not add the sugar as it was just a tad sweet, for me, but overall everyone loved it. THANKS!
