Ingredients

• 4 cups broccoli florets, steamed until crisp-tender
• 8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Here's how to make it:

1. Mix together the cream cheese, mayonnaise, mozzarella cheese and garlic powder in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. (Freshly grated cheese melts better than pre-packaged shredded cheese, so if you can grate your own.)
2. Add the cooked broccoli and stir to combine. Pour into a baking dish. Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. (Try this recipe with cauliflower instead of broccoli, or a combination of both.)
3. Bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven for about 10 to 12 minutes. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat in the microwave.
