Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 3-4 minutes, until bright green and just tender. Drain and transfer to a large mixing bowl.

Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, stirring until melted and fully incorporated.
Pour the cheese sauce over the cooked broccoli in the mixing bowl and toss to coat evenly.
