Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt butter over medium and add flour, whisking to create a roux.
- Add garlic, onion, salt, pepper, oregano, parsley, and garlic powder and cook for another 60-90 seconds.
- Turn heat up to medium high and slowly add stock, whisking to combine and prevent lumps. Add milk (or combination of milk and cream) and cook until it reaches a simmer. Cook, letting it thicken, about 3-5 minutes.
- Turn down heat to medium and add broccoli and pasta and cover and let cook for 10 minutes.
- Remove lid, reduce heat to medium low, mix well, and then add shredded cheese, stirring to melt it all. Season with additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Substitutions:
- Substitutions:
- Egg noodles: Use whatever pasta you'd like! Just keep in mind that homemade, fresh pasta will only need a couple of minutes to cook.
- Broccoli: Use frozen by just breaking it up in the bag and adding it frozen to the pot. 5 cups is about a 32 oz bag of frozen. Use other veggies, too! If using spinach, add toward very end of cooking time.
- Milk: Use 1%, 2%, whole, or a combination of any milk that you have and 1/4 cup of cream.
- Cheese: Use cheddar, parmesan, or mozzarella.
- Storing:
- Storing
- Store in fridge for up to 3 days or in an airtight container in freezer for up to 3 months.
- Re-heating:
- Re-heat leftovers in microwave or oven, but our favorite way is to add them to a frying pan to re-heat and brown a little.
