Ingredients
-
cooking spray (I use olive oil in a Misto)
-
1 1/2 cups milk
-
2 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
-
3/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
-
1 cup mayonnaise
-
3/4 cup chopped onion (about 1/2 medium)
-
3/4 cup panko breadcrumbs (Japanese breadcrumbs)
-
1 tablespoon butter, melted
-
1/2 cup reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
-
3 (10 ounce) packages frozen broccoli florets, thawed
Instructions
- Arrange broccoli in an even layer in an 11 x 7-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray; set aside.
- Combine milk, flour, salt, and pepper in a large saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Cook 1 minute or until thick, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add cheddar and cream cheeses; stir until smooth. Stir in mayonnaise and onion. Spoon cheese mixture evenly over broccoli.
- Place panko in a small bowl. Drizzle with butter, and toss. Sprinkle breadcrumb mixture evenly over cheese mixture. Lightly spray breadcrumb layer with cooking spray. Bake at 375° for 25 minutes or until mixture begins to bubble and breadcrumbs brown.
