Introduction

Got this recipe from kraftfoods.com. Makes a great side dish, it's pretty enough to bring to holidays or parties, but super simple enough for a weeknight. Also, I've started adding chicken and sometimes rice to make it a one pot casserole.

I know this isn't the healthiest dish ever, but I wanted to put it in the database for my own nutritional info because I make it for my friends and family all the time. And I wish I could tell you how much a serving is.. but I use the same casserole dish every time, and just cut 8 equal squares out of it! Got this recipe from kraftfoods.com.

Ingredients

    *2 bags of frozen broccoli
    *3/4 of a tub of chive and onion cream cheese
    *half a can of cream of broccoli soup. (this is my preference, cream of anything will do though!)
    *about 2 cups of sharp cheddar cheese
    *one sheet of puff pastry
    *one egg


Directions

First, the puff pastry needs to defrost, so get that out right away. It should be ready by the time you're finished the rest of the prep.

Next, defrost the broccoli in the microwave. I usually microwave it for about half the time the instructions say for normal use.

Then mix together first four ingredients in a bowl if that's easier for you, or to be even easier I just mix it directly in the casserole dish. Also, I usually add a splash of water to thin out the mix, making it a lot easier to mix.

Last, drape the puff pastry right over the broccoli mix and use the egg to brush some egg wash on top.

Pop it in the oven uncovered for 30 minutes, or until all puffed up and golden brown.
