Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Cook the broccoli according to the package directions. Transfer to a colander to drain until cool, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer the broccoli to a large bowl and add the mozzarella, feta, ricotta, dill, chives, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Stir together with a large spoon, using the back of it to crush any large broccoli florets. Set aside.
- Whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Roll out a sheet of the puff pastry on a clean work surface into a 12-inch square, dusting with flour as needed to prevent sticking. Cut the puff pastry into sixteen 3-inch squares with a pizza wheel or knife. Place 1 tablespoon of the broccoli mixture in the center of each square. Working with a square at a time, pinch together 2 opposite corners, then pinch together the remaining 2 corners to create a small packet. Transfer the packets to a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining puff pastry and filling. Brush the packets with the egg wash and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
- Working in batches if needed, bake the packets until golden and bubbly, 20 to 22 minutes.

- Cut the broccoli into uniform florets: This will help them cook evenly.
- Blanch the broccoli before adding it to the casserole: This will help preserve its bright green color and crisp texture.
- Use a high-quality cheddar cheese: The cheese is the star of this dish, so don't skimp on quality. Look for a sharp cheddar that melts well.
- Don't overcook the casserole: The broccoli should still be slightly crisp when you take it out of the oven.
- Serve the casserole immediately: This dish is best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.
