ingredients

1 1/2 pound broccoli
boiling salted water
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1 package (3 ounce size) cream cheese, room temp
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
1 jar (2 ounce size) sliced pimientos
1 cup milk
1/3 cup crushed butter-flavor crackers

directions

Rinse broccoli well. Drain. Cut tops into bite-size florets. Trim off ends of stems. Peel lower portions of remaining stems. Slice into 1/4-inch pieces.

Cook broccoli in boiling salted water 4 to 6 minutes until tender-crisp. Drain. Place in a shallow, greased 2-quart baking dish.

In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion. Cook until soft but not browned. Stir in flour and garlic salt. Cook, stirring, until bubbly. Remove pan from heat. Mix in cream cheese, blue cheese and pimentos. Gradually add milk.

Return to heat. Cook, stirring, until sauce is thick. Pour over broccoli. Sprinkle with cracker crumbs.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 to 25 minutes until heated through and lightly browned.

  1. Sissy REVIEW:

    Doubled the recipe and served to a crowd! Great!

  2. Valerie REVIEW:

    This recipe turned out perfect. We did omit the cracker crumbs on top, but other than that we followed the recipe exactly. You should be able to use reduced-fat dairy products in this recipe with no problem. If you want to omit the starch (flour), you can thicken the sauce by adding more cheese.
