Needed a quick cheese sauce for Broccoli. I looked up one on the Betty Crocker website and found this one. So yummy. It sets up a little after it cools down a bit. Make sure you drain the water off the broccoli so your cheese sauce isn't overly runny. My husband liked it too and it was so easy!

This is a wonderful recipe! The only thing I changed is that I did NOT microwave the broccoli...it destroys the nutrients and changes the molecular structure...you might as well eat plastic if you microwave your food. A stove top steamer works much better and doesn't destroy the vegetable.
