    This was really good! My husband had seconds though he usually refuses broccoli. Left out the ricotta and topped with feta instead and used more garlic than recipe calls for.

    Three Cheese Broccoli and Penne Bake, This is another of my family’s all time favorite dishes! This recipe calls for an 11 x 7-inch pan, which will feed 3 people easily, I strongly suggest to double up the ingredients and bake it in a 13 x 9-inch baking pan if you are feeding more than 4 people, everyone will want seconds! I have also added in ground turkey that I cook with the garlic before I saute the broccoli, you might have to bake it in a larger baking dish if you are adding in ground turkey to the mixture also , This was really good! My husband had seconds though he usually refuses broccoli Left out the ricotta and topped with feta instead and used more garlic than recipe calls for , Tasty and simple to put together My 10-year-old’s review: Oh, Mom, this is so good! Thanks for posting!
