Broccoli au Gratin
Broccoli au gratin—or the best way to enjoy a de-li-cios broccoli-based lunch or dinner! Even if you’re not a fan of broccoli, I’m sure this dish will change your mind.
Broccoli au gratin is extremely easy to make and you can use up any leftover cheese you find in the fridge. I’ve used a mix of cheeses for this recipe, but you can use pretty much any cheese you have in your pantry (mozzarella, parmesan, cheddar, fontina, gruyere or feta – all are great options for this recipe).
Broccoli au gratin is also a great holiday side dish as it pairs extremely well with roasted meats, especially turkey and chicken. You can also pair it with fish, baked trout or salmon, as well as steak.
