You're right, it doesn't get much easier! I also used variation #2 as I had the frozen broccoli w/ cheese sauce in the freezer. Very good and will make again. -
These were really good and really easy to make! I used the #2 variation. I didn't have frozen broccoli in cheese sauce so I used plain frozen chopped broccoli and made Recipe #246558. Turned out great! All 4 variations would be wonderful and I am looking forward to trying the other 3. Thanks for sharing the recipe :) -
These are so good and so easy another great way is to use spaghetti sauce or pizza sauce top with pepperoni and lots of mozzarella cheese I slip them into microwave to heat the topping then sprinkle with a bit of chopped onions & olives I also used shredded sharp cheddar cheese in place of mozzarella cheese and it is wonderful -
i really love these ideas. thanks for sharing!

I?m ?originally from Texas, but now live in Florida. Still gotta have that spice though....love chipotle peppers, habaneros, and jalapenos. This is a picture of myself & my 2 daughters taken in Dec'06. I am working on my graduate degree, & still work as a nurse prn. When I'm not cooking and eating what I cook... I head for the gym to work out. As far as cookbooks, I love the church/ community cookbooks, where someone has dug out old handwritten recipes by granny and shared them with others-those are the best kind. If I had a month off, I'd for sure go hiking, would love to visit Australia and New Zealand.?
