3/4 cup grated combination of sharp Cheddar, Parmesan – divided
1/4 cup sour cream
6–8 crackers
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425 F
Rinse the broccoli and cut into florets, approximately 1″ cubes. Peel the stalks and cut them into pieces as well. Put broccoli in a casserole dish with 1 tablespoon water and cover with a glass lid or a plate. Microwave 3 minutes or until just tender.
Melt the butter in a sauce pan and add the flour. Stir and cook 45 seconds until smooth and beginning to smell toasty.
Add half the milk and stir briskly to combine. Add the rest of the milk and seasonings.
Add 1/2 cup of the cheese and stir to melt. Congratulations! You just made a Mornay sauce! Now add in the sour cream.
Drain the broccoli and mix with the sauce.
Put it all in a casserole.
Top with broken crackers and remaining cheese
Bake at 350 for 25 minutes or 425 F for 15 minutes until browned and bubbling.
