Broccoli with Cheese Sauce is a comforting dish that pairs nutrient-rich steamed broccoli with a creamy cheese-based topping. A staple in American comfort food, this recipe typically features fresh broccoli florets, melted cheddar or a cheese blend, butter, milk or cream, and seasonings like garlic or mustard for added flavor. Broccoli is packed with vitamins C and K, fiber, and antioxidants, making it a heart-healthy, immune-supporting vegetable. However, the cheese sauce, often high in calories, saturated fats, and sodium, can compromise its nutritional benefits when consumed in excess. This dish offers a delicious way to enjoy broccoli but is best savored in moderation or adapted with lighter cheese and low-fat ingredients for a healthier twist.
