broccoli and cream cheese sauce
steamed broccoli1 block 1/3 less fat cream cheese (or fat free if you prefer), softened
1/4 + 2 tablespoons low fat (or fat free) mayo
4 teaspoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
garlic salt to taste (lots if you're me)
mash softened cream cheese with a fork. add all other sauce ingredients and mix until combined and flavor is to your liking. put on top of steamed broccoli.
p.s. broccoli isn't always the cheapest vegetable, so wait for it to go on sale. no binge buying. :) i got broccoli florets (no bulky, heavy stems that run up your price) for 50 cents/lb this week. that would explain why i've eaten the above 3 times in the last 15 hours.

Mmm, this looks good. I absolutely LOVE cream cheese.
me too! anything tastes better with cream cheese!
So I have some blanched broccoli hanging out in the freezer and I was planning on saving it for when baby Britt Wilkinson Hoopes makes her debut but I decided that I will use it tonight because I trust that this will be quite fabulous and worth it. What a steal you got on your broccoli! Good work, my deal-seeking friend!
P.S. Remember Erin & Tyler Burch? They are expecting twins this summer!
Just wanted to report that this was a complete success at our house. Jacob tried a little after I made it and kept wanting more. He takes after his Aunt Britt by eating off of a spoon! :) Thanks for sharing! Oh, and I didn't have any W sauce, as I used to call it when growing up, so I used about 1 1/2 tsp. soy sauce instead just for flavor and it worked well!
If you are not a fan of broccoli alone, you have got to try this recipe:
