We usually steam it in the veggie steamer, and it's not so bad.

No the OP, but really? I roast frozen brussels sprouts but have never tried it with broccoli! I'll try this.
A different poster, but broccoli roasted like this is delicious. I devoured two servings of it last night.

Cheese sauce is the answer you seek. Also cook it in a steamer basket so it isn't wet; that's what makes frozen veg unpalatable to me.

Yes...
1) Glass bowl, cover with plastic wrap. Microwave it - 2 min . Turn over the broccoli, recover and nuke again. Then you can pretty cook it normally.
2) Other method is to cook in low sodium chicken broth, or use 'about 1/2 normal amount of 'better than bouillon' add 1-2 tbsp of salted butter depending on how much broccoli...

Like a PP said, no need to defrost - just put it right in the pan.

We never cook it. I only buy it to make a small number of guest kid-faves and in every case,I am just stirring defrosted frozen broccoli into something else that is already hot (typically freshly cooked rice which I am then going to mix shredded cheese into).

p.s. no need to defrost first -- you can do this from frozen.

I need to put off a shopping trip one more day, so I'm out of fresh produce. Any way to make frozen broccoli not completely mushy/gross? Even if I cook it for half the time recommended, it's always too soft for me.
Any oven hacks? Like maybe defrost and then roast?
