This versatile side dish is a variation of a recipe I've had for years. Instead of broccoli, you can use green beans, carrots or your family's favorite vegetable. You can even add cubed cooked chicken and turn it into a main dish.—Robin Stevens, Cadiz, Kentucky

  • 1 cup chopped fresh or frozen broccoli
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup milk
