For best results, ensure the cooked broccoli is thoroughly drained to prevent soggy bites.
Feel free to add other cheeses, such as cheddar or mozzarella, for a different flavor profile.
These bites can be frozen after baking. Allow them to cool completely, then freeze in a single layer on a baking sheet before transferring to a freezer bag. Reheat in the oven until warmed through.
Try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a hint of spice.
