Broccoli with Cheddar Cheese Sauce

I found this recipe on the Whole Food's website and thought boy, that'd be good on a baker! So that's what I did!


Just bake your potatoes like you normally would then top with the broccoli and cheese sauce. Add bacon, salt and pepper, sour cream.. whatever other toppings you enjoy!

Makes: 6 servings (about enough for 3 large potatoes)

Ingredients:

3. Gradually stir in milk, whisking over medium-low heat until thickened.
