Broccoli Parmesan Gratin
There may be no better vegetable pairing than broccoli and cheese. The sweet, earthy flavor of broccoli is a worthy partner for almost any cheese. In this Broccoli Parmesan Gratin, tender broccoli is matched with sharp Parmesan cheese enveloped in a luscious bechamel sauce for an inventive side dish that's so good, they won't even realize they're eating vegetables. No matter how much they like broccoli, they will love broccoli and cheese together.
The rich, delicious combination of broccoli and cheese in this Broccoli Parmesan Gratin will stand up well to big flavors, such as our beef entrees. It also pairs quite nicely with our Eastern Shore Creamed Corn Casserole or Honey and Sage Roasted Carrots. Both dishes offer a touch of sweetness that helps counter the rich broccoli and cheese flavors in the casserole.
Each Broccoli Parmesan Gratin casserole is 24 oz., serves 4-6 as a side dish or 2-3 as an entree.
