"I began making this creamy side dish years ago as a way to get my kids to eat broccoli. They've since grown into adults and still request this satisfying dish. It's truly a family favorite." – Barbara Uhl, Wesley Chapel, Florida

This recipe came out great! The creamy sauce compliments the broccoli very well. I made it the night before (without breadcrumbs) and refrigerated it until cooking it the next day. I sprinkled on the breadcrumbs right before cooking, and it came out wonderful.

I made this and the Arichokes au Gratin. Both were a SUCCESS! My sister-in-law asked for the recipes and said this one she will make throughout the year!

Boy, did we ever enjoy this one! I never have 2% milk around, but with a little extra butter & flour, I had no trouble substituting skim milk. I also blanched the broccoli, since I don't own a steamer basket. This is a terrific way to get more broccoli on the menu!

Made it with cauliflower for Christmas, broccoli another time, and doubled it for a church dinner. Everyone loved it! I used freshly grated parmesan cheese and I think it made all the difference.

I'm getting ready to make this to take to thanksgiving dinner. Had to come look it back up online, because the printed version didn't put the last two steps of the recipe. I'm glad it's here. Can't wait to try this.
