Found on Best Foods website.
Prep Time: 5 minutes, Cook Time: 10 minutes, Serves: 6

Ingredients:
1 head broccoli, cut in florets
1/3 cup Hellmann's or Best Foods Canola Cholesterol Free Mayonnaise
1/3 cup milk
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (4 oz)
1/8 tsp. ground black pepper
Pinch ground nutmeg

Instructions:
1. Cook broccoli until crisp-tender
2. In 4-quart saucepan, with wire whisk, combine Mayonnaise and milk until smooth.  Add cheese, pepper and nutmeg.  Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until cheese is melted (do not boil).
3. Add broccoli and toss to coat; heat through.

Alterations:  I steamed the broccoli florets in a Ziploc Steamer Bag as that's how we like to cook our vegetables.  Easy, worry free cooking with super easy clean up.  Also, I used a fat free store brand Mayonnaise because I didn't want to buy two different types of Mayonnaise.

The Verdict:  I don't eat broccoli, let me rephrase that... I HATE BROCCOLI!  But this topping drowned the flavor of the broccoli so well that I went back for seconds.  Hubby (the broccoli eater) said it was 'okay' and the kiddo didn't even try it but we agreed to have it again. 

The sauce was very runny and did not stick to the broccoli as I expected so I had to swipe the broccoli through the cheese sauce before each bite.  Also, when the sauce gets cold, it tastes similar to sour cream, which isn't so bad but it could turn off some people like my hubby.
