These cheesy broccoli pockets were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them instead of frying them next time.

The dough for these cheesy broccoli pockets was a bit too thick for my taste. I think I'll try rolling it out thinner next time.

These cheesy broccoli pockets were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more garlic and cheese next time.
