Basic baked potatoes topped with a “white” cheese sauce and cooked broccoli. A sure winner for a one-dish cool weather meal or a delicious side! This sauce also works great on veggies for kids. I grew up with my mom making this recipe with Velveeta cheese. I’m partial to the Velveeta, but this recipe is delicious using cheddar or Monterey jack, too!
Cook frozen broccoli according to package directions.
Wash and prick each potato 2 to 3 times with a fork. Wrap individually in aluminum foil. Bake at 400 F for 90 minutes.
To prepare the basic white sauce, in a medium saucepan over low-medium heat, melt butter. Add in flour and whisk until smooth. Gradually add in milk or half-and-half, stirring constantly with a whisk until smooth.
Raise heat to medium. Add in cubed cheese and stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until all cheese is melted and the sauce is heated through.
Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Optional: for a kick, add a dash or two of Worcestershire sauce.)
Cut open potatoes and spoon on cooked broccoli and generous amounts of cheese sauce. Enjoy!
