Tammy's Review: 

I created this creamy cheesy broccoli chicken dish because I love pasta with saucy chicken-veggie toppings :D. I like this better without the optional cheddar cheese. The cream cheese and parmesan cheese give a flavor that resembles alfredo. This dish is fairly simple to make, and a nice (different) use for fresh broccoli. My rating: 9/10
