Excellent! I followed advice of others and seasoned them more as well as flattened them a little. Great base recipe! I used fresh broccoli, fresh parsley, fresh onion, plain bread crumbs and all sorts of seasonings. Will certainly make these again!

These were great and toddler-approved. They don't scream "You're eating broccoli" and they're portable (in fact, my oldest daughter wants them in her lunchbox). Be sure your broccoli is drained well. I simplified the preparation by chopping everything together in my food processor, scooping balls of the "dough" with a cookie scoop, and placing on the baking sheet. I did bake them longer than stated, for approximately 25 minutes. I look forward to making these again and adding different ingredients to get a variety of flavors: Spinach & feta, red pepper & goat cheese, and adding red pepper to the original recipe would be perfect for Christmas! These would also be good with some added garlic. Thanks for a fun, versatile recipe!

"As is" these are a little plain. I would definitely dip them in some sort of sauce, like a spicy honey mustard. They could also use more seasoning. I like the poultry seasoning flavor but think some garlic might kick it up a little. I think next time too, I will turn them half way through cooking so they get brown on both sides.

Very mixed reviews. Either loved or hated these in our family. The look of them is not appealing and the smell lingered ALL day.

It was good; it tasted like stuffing with broccoli, but who doesn't like stuffing? It didn't look as appealing as it tasted, I must admit. Very flavorful.

I found this recipe very disappointing. They are very bland and need something to spice them up. They also look very bland and unappetizing. Finally the recipe states they are good warm or cold. I would not recommend serving them room temp/cold. I will not make this recipe again.

These are great! I used a 16oz bag of broccoli, and served them at a party. They are great hot, warm or room temp. Thanks!

OK, I played with this recipe! For one thing I thought they were bland, so after I had baked three, to sample, I added a healthy dash of Hot Sauce. Sampled again and still thought they lacked something. So I tried them with salsa. I liked that. So I baked some more and flattened the balls in order to have more area for the Salsa! I may try this recipe again, but I will certainly play around with more spices and perhaps cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon. I did prefer the flattened product. It is a fine basic recipe, and easily changed to accommodate personal taste.
