Another fabulous way to get kids to eat their broccoli. This side dish is tasty enough for grownups, but cheesy enough for kids!
If you decide to use fresh basil instead of dried, just use 1/2 Tablespoon instead.
The easiest way I've found to cut most fresh herbs (like basil and parsley) is to put the herbs into a squatty drinking glass (like a juice glass) and take clean scissors and just start snipping until the herbs are cut up nice and small. It's easy and even older children could help with this task.
