Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups fresh broccoli florets
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Place the broccoli florets in a 4-quart crockpot.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
  3. Pour the cheese mixture over the broccoli in the crockpot, ensuring the broccoli is evenly coated.
  4. Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 4-6 hours, or on high for 2-3 hours, until the broccoli is tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  5. Stir the mixture well before serving. Add salt to taste.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with additional shredded cheese or chopped fresh parsley, if desired.

Notes

For best results, use fresh, high-quality broccoli florets and shred the cheese yourself rather than using pre-shredded varieties. Adjust the cooking time based on your crockpot's temperature settings, as some models may run hotter or cooler than others. Experiment with different cheese blends to find the combination that best suits your taste preferences.
