- Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Whisk in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes, 2 bouillon cubes (chicken or vegetable), and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder until smooth.
- Gradually whisk in 2 cups of water and 1 cup of milk.
- Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
- Drain the cooked broccoli and add it to the cheese sauce.
- Stir in 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese until melted and smooth.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot and enjoy!
