Total Time 1 hours 5 minutes

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 slices whole-wheat sandwich bread
2 pounds broccoli florets
3 tablespoons butter, divided
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups diced onion
4 cloves garlic, minced
? cup all-purpose flour
3?½ cups low-sodium chicken broth
6 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
¾ teaspoon ground pepper
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups shredded Colby Jack cheese, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

  • Increase oven temperature to 350 degrees F.

Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and cook for 1 minute. While stirring, slowly pour in chicken broth. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in cream cheese, Worcestershire, pepper and salt, cook, stirring, until smooth, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1 1/2 cups cheese. Pour the cheese sauce over the broccoli.
  • Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Combine the melted butter and the breadcrumbs in a medium bowl. Spread evenly over the broccoli mixture. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
  • Bake until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbling around the edges, 25 to 30 minutes.
