This is a fast easy weeknight recipe when you need dinner quickly. I skipped the step where you cook the broccoli in advance, and added it frozen (I didn't want the broccoli to overcook). Recipe courtesy of Pillsbury Christmas 2009.

1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon instant minced onion

1/4 teaspoon dill weed (or increase to 1/2 tsp dill weed, your preference)
1 dash pepper
2 cups milk
3 cups water
sour cream, if desired
Directions:
1. Cook broccoli as directed on package.
2. Drain.
3. Melt butter in large saucepan over medium heat.
4. Stir in flour, instant minced onion, bouillon, salt, dry mustard, dill, and pepper.
5. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly.
