I admit it: I made this recipe two days in a row because it was so stinkin' easy. I had two events I signed up for and I needed something requiring little time, so I thumbed through my Cook's Country magazines and came up with this one.
This recipe was my dream come true: minimal chopping, no baking, and no bringing anything to room temperature. Ahh, potluck bliss! And people seemed to like it, so that's why I'm putting it out there for the rest of you lazy potluckers like me. Enjoy!

This sounds good. A variation of judy's recipe. I am always trying to find a way to get the raw broccoli consumed. I will try, sounds very nutritious. rw
