A friend gave me this recipe years ago. It's a marvelous dish to go with any meat...also a vegetable dish that will keep if your dinner party happens to be running late! Ingredients:
1 package (16 ounces) frozen pearl onions |
1 pound fresh broccoli, cut into spears |
6 tablespoons butter, divided |
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
pinch pepper |
1 cup milk |
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
1 cup soft bread crumbs |
Directions:
1. In a covered saucepan, cook onions in a small amount of water for 5 minutes. Add broccoli; cook 5 more minutes. Drain. Place in a 2-qt. baking dish. In a small saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons butter; stir in flour, salt and pepper. Gradually add milk; cook and stir until thickened. Add cream cheese; stir until melted. Pour sauce over vegetables; sprinkle with cheddar cheese. Cover and bake at 350° for 30 minutes. Melt remaining butter; combine with crumbs. Sprinkle over casserole. Return to the oven, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Yield: 6-8 servings. |
