I love blue cheese and this is a great recipe from Maytag Dairy Farm. Use Maytag Blue cheese if possible but any high quality blue will do. Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs broccoli, trimmed, florets separated, stems cut into 1/4-inch slices |
2 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons flour |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 cup milk |
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese |
3 ounces cream cheese, room temperature |
1/2 cup dried breadcrumbs |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°. 2. Cover broccoli with lightly salted water in a medium saucepan. Heat to a boil over high heat; cook 2 minutes. Drain and transfer to a shallow, buttered casserole dish. 3. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat; stir in the flour and garlic. Cook, stirring, until bubbly, about 1 minute. 4. Stir in the milk, blue cheese and cream cheese. Cook, stirring, until sauce thickens, about 4 minutes. Pour over broccoli; sprinkle with bread crumbs. 5. Bake until heated through and lightly browned, about 25 minutes. |
