Ingredients
Scale:
4 cups fresh broccoli florets
8 slices of bacon, chopped
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Rinse the broccoli florets thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the chopped bacon and cook until crispy, about 7-10 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked bacon, broccoli florets, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Stir well.
Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the mixture.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden brown.
Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving.
