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.
