Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Steam or boil Broccoli until tender-crisp. Drain well.
Prepare the Cheese Sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt Butter over medium heat. Whisk in All-purpose flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, creating a roux.
Gradually whisk in Milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat.
Stir in Cheddar cheese, Garlic powder, and Black pepper until cheese is melted and sauce is smooth.
Combine Broccoli and Cheese Sauce in the prepared baking dish. Spread evenly.
Top with Tater tots in a single layer.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until tater tots are golden brown and crispy and the sauce is bubbly.
