Preparation

Step 1

1. Saute onion and garlic in butter until soft. Mix in mustard, 2 tbs Dijon. Add breadcrumbs. Saute until crisp and golden, stirring to separate crumbs, about 8 mins. Season and cool completely. Mix in 3/4 cup cheese.

2. Blanch broccoli in boiling water just 2 mins. Drain and cool on paper towels.

3. Heat oven to 350. Spray 9x13" dish.

4. Toss broccoli with cream, 2 tbs Dijon mustard, 1/4 cup cheese. Pour into dish, sprinkle with streusel. Bake until streusel is browned, about 30 mins.

Notes: This was good - although I think I may have mixed it up too far ahead of time and the half and half was absorbed too quickly. Will try again.
