Great! I used 8 oz. low-fat cheddar and 8 oz. mozzerella. I also added a little garlic powder. I also cut the butter to 2 oz. The melted butter gives a wonderful crust to the dish. Thanks, Jan

Delicious! I used only one package frozen broccoli and that worked fine, I also added in cayenne pepper, garlic powder and used 1 small onion and baked it in an 11x7 pan, this makes a wonderful easy side dish, great recipe thanks for sharing MRSJSPANTS!

Finally! It resembles a casserole but without all the extra fat and salt added by sour cream, mayo and/or cream soups! My boyfriend and I both loved it! Over half of it vanished with dinner. This is a new regular side dish for us.
