Ingredients

    i package frozen broccoli
    1 medium potato, sliced
    1 fennel bulb, sliced
    1 small onion, sliced
    .25 c chicken broth, mixed with enough flour to create a rue (2 tablespoons)
    1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    .5 cup toasted bread crumbs (optional)
    .5 cup shredded reduced fat cheddar (optional)

Directions

Cook broccoli according to package instructions (I use the steam bags). Heat 1 tsp evoo in a saute pan or use olive oil spray and lightly saute the onions, potatoes and fennel for 3-5 minutes until they begin to get tender. Mix all vegetables in a glass casserole dish and then create a rue from the flour and chicken broth. Pour the rue over the vegetables followed by the Parmesan cheese (and cheddar if desired). Bake in a 375 degree oven for 15-18 minutes until cheese is bubbly and vegetables are tender. Top with toasted bread crumbs in the last 3-5 minutes of baking, if desired. Serves 4 as a main course or 8 as a side dish.
