As other reviewers stated, needs a little extra something. I added tomato sauce and some additional spices, as well as leftover chicken breast pieces. That helped, but still a bit dry. Will try again, but change up the recipe.

This recipe was just ok for me - but my family loved it. I used extra garlic but it seemed as though something was missing. As I said though, family loved it so it's in the rotation!

This was a great alternative as I needed a side without parmesan cheese with my Italian pork chops (I ran out...). I used leftover spaghetti and added parsley (personal taste) and a couple tablespoons of milk (to help keep from drying out). I think the milk wasn't so necessary as watching the dish. I don't think it needs very much time in the oven. The oven is what dries out the pasta and everything is already cooked, so it's best just to leave it in to melt the cheese rather than wait for it to be brown. Covering with foil might be another option, too. Overall - very good for a quick side!

Very easy and fast! Came out good... but next time id use less olive oil, it came out a bit too greasy, but still good thanks!

I added a little alfredo sauce and chicken to this dish and it was still way too dry. I also added sundried tomatoes for a little extra kick. Keep in mind, the pasta needs somthing to absorb...the cheese alone makes it too dry. Add a cream sauce and you'll be much happier with the end result. Other than that, the flavors were great...it's a good base to start with.

I like ALOT of cheese so I did add more than suggested. I also added a marinara sauce to it so I didn't have the 'dry' problem others have mentioned. Chicken with the broccoli though would have been a great addition. I served this with cheese garlic bread and it was awesome!!

I also added some chicken breast to make it more of a meal. It wasn't too dry to eat, but I liked the idea of adding an alfredo sauce.

I thought this recipe was too dry also. A sauce would definitely help. Thanks anyway.

Ingredients looked like I couldn't go wrong, but it came out very sticky with cheese, and dry - it needed some type of sauce, I think... anyway, I saved it by pulling the broccoli out and simply mixing it with some spiral pasta and butter and herbs...

I thought this made a great meal. I served it along side of a very meaty baked pasta dish for an "Italian Night" dinner party. My friends are VERY picky eaters and they all loved it. It was simple and good. I don't think it was too dry at all - just make sure that you don't discard the oil in which the brocoli is cooked. As the brocoli is cooking, it makes some water, a little bit of which can also be tossed in with the pasta. All in all, I really liked this recipe and will definitely make it again. I served it with some vegetarian eggplant marinara on the side for those who like things saucy.

I thought it was too dry. It works better as a side dish rather than a main dish.

I added boneless chicken breast to the broccoli and garlic, just to make it a little more of a meal. My kids loved it, so for that reason it will have a space in my recipe box. In my opinion, this was good but a little dry. Maybe adding a can of cream of mushroom soup would give it the little extra moisture that it needs.
