I made this last night, modifying it from a Cooking Light 2007 recipe. It can be P1 friendly without the crackers on top.
Broccoli and Cheese Casserole
2 (10-ounce) packages frozen chopped broccoli, thawed
Cooking spray
1 cup fat-free milk
2½ tablespoons whole wheat flour (Leave this out for P1'ers; it will be fine without it)
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¾ cup (3 ounces) shredded sharp Reduced Fat Cheddar Cheese (or whichever lowfat cheese you prefer)
1 cup reduced fat mayonnaise
For P2'ers - Kellogg's All Bran Crackers (Garlic & Herb flavor), crushed (about ½ cup crushed)
1. Preheat oven to 375.
2. Arrange broccoli in an even layer in a baking dish coated with cooking spray; set aside. (I used round baking dish, and it fit perfectly)
3. Combine milk, flour, salt, and pepper in a large saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Cook 1 minut or until thick, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add cheese and stir until smooth. Stir in mayonnaise. Spoon cheese mixture evenly over broccoli.
4. Phase 2 only: Crush the All Bran crackers, and spread over top of the casserole.
5. Bake at 375 for 25 minutes.
Makes 10 servings (serving size: about ¾ cup)

I would pre-cook it, since it wouldn't 'cook' on its own in the oven.
