Love this! My husband won't eat his broccoli without it! Thx!

I really wanted to like this, since it's both simple and gluten-free (something important due to my food sensitivities). Unfortunately, the taste was somehow off. I didn't like the combination of Worcestershire with the broccoli, and the flavor of the cheese was overwhelmed. I do plan to try it again with a different cheese and hope to come back with a better review.

Love it! I used it for some Broccoflower that I got that needed some umph. I used black pepper, onion salt and skim milk (b/c thats what I had) and it was fab! Oh and I also eyeballed the ingredients ;)
