Broccoli With Cheese Sauce⁣

This side dish is so decadent and delicious, it’s hard to believe how super simple it is to make. ⁣

⁣

Broccoli and cheese make an unbeatable combination, but this yummy creamy cheese sauce would also be delicious with other veggies, like cauliflower and carrots.⁣

⁣

I got this awesome cheese sauce recipe from @allrecipes.⁣

⁣

Ingredients⁣

2 heads broccoli⁣

2 tbsp butter⁣

2 tbsp all-purpose flour (use cassava flour for a gluten-free option, but disclaimer - I have not tried this myself)⁣

1 cup milk⁣

1 1/2 cups shredded cheese of choice⁣

Salt and pepper ⁣

⁣

Cut the broccoli heads into large florets. Peel the broccoli stalks and cut into chunks as well.⁣

⁣

Steam broccoli until it is cooked to your liking. I like mine quite soft.⁣

⁣

In a small saucepan on medium heat, melt the butter. Add flour and stir with a whisk until dissolved. Add the milk and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens. This takes a minute or two. Add cheese and mix well until cheese is melted. Turn off heat, taste, and add salt and pepper if necessary.⁣

⁣

Serve immediately. I like to put a big dollop of cheese sauce on top of my broccoli. Enjoy!⁣
