Serves: 4-6

Ingredients
2 tablespoons Olive oil (plus a bit more for the baking dish)
4 heads Broccoli (cut up into bite size pieces)
8 ounces White button mushrooms (sliced)
2 teaspoons Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon Pepper
1 teaspoon Onion powder
1/4 cup Unsalted butter
3 tablespoons All purpose flour
2 cups Whole milk
1 cup Crushed buttery crackers like Ritz
1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese (grated)

Step by Step Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and grease an 8 inch square baking dish.
  2. Bring water to a boil in a large saucepan with a steamer basket and lid. Put the broccoli into the basket, cover and steam for 4 to 6 minutes, then put the broccoli onto a plate and set aside.
  3. Heat the oil in a large saucepan or skillet over medium-high heat, then saute the sliced mushrooms for 4 to 5 minutes.
  4. Season the mushrooms with salt, pepper, and onion powder and add the butter. Cook stirring for 3 to 4 more minutes to let the butter melt.
  5. Slowly pour the milk into the pan, stirring as you pour. Once all the milk is added bring the mixture to a simmer and let cook for 3 to 4 more minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the steamed broccoli.
  6. Put the coated broccoli into the baking dish. Blend the crackers and grated cheddar in a food processor. Pour the crumble over the coated broccoli and bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
