This is a great side dish & it has become a holiday tradition in my family. It is a perfect match with a prime rib meal. This dish can easily be converted to a main dish by adding fettuccine & beef medallions. Also quite good with shrimp.

5-6 oz creamy gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
1-2 pinch salt (to taste)
1-2 pinch fresh cracked pepper (to taste)
1/4 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 lb steamed broccoli florets
ALTERNATE FINISH:
1 c italian bread crumbs
3/4 c creamy gorgonzola cheese, crumbled

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.

  • If you don't have gorgonzola cheese, you can substitute another type of blue cheese, such as Roquefort or Stilton.
  • To make the dish even more flavorful, try roasting the broccoli before adding it to the sauce.
  • Serve the dish immediately, while the cheese is still melted and gooey.
