Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a large oven-safe skillet or casserole dish.

  5. Mix in Broccoli: Once cooked, stir in the broccoli florets until evenly distributed.
