Ingredients:


1 Box (10 ounces) Birds Eye Chopped Broccoli
4 Ounces cream cheese, softened
¼ Cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 Loaf frozen garlic bread

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place Broccoli, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, and basil in a mixing bowl, food processor, or blender; process until ingredients are mixed (do NOT over mix).
