I would be willing to bet that I whip a version of this
super simple side dish at least twice a month. It is Ben and my favorite
vegetable side dish. It is my easy, go to,
vegetable side dish for any occasion. I
change up the cheeses, depending on what I have on hand. But the cream cheese
and S & P remain as constants in the dish.
To make it a meal you could add cubed ham and serve over pasta, rice, or
a baked potato.
Easy Cheesy Broccoli Side
-4 oz. cream cheese
- ¼ c. fresh parmesan (shaved, grated, or shredded)
-4 Tbsp. Peppercorn Parmesan Cheese Spread
-S & P (~1 tsp. each)
Microwave plain raw broccoli on high for 5 to 6
minutes. Add all cheese and S & P.
Right before dinner is served, return broccoli and other ingredients to
microwave for one more minute. Stir and
serve immediately.





one of benton's constant trouble is that i never make sides and it's true. i worry too much about getting the main together that i could care less about the side. but i just might do this one. super simple and we both love broccoli. now if i could just get makinze to believe that broccoli is good.
ReplyDeleteSides are a pain in the rear. And I hardly ever make them unless it is something frozen I can microwave or stick in the oven (like tater tots). I think that is why we like this so much!
