- Broccoli should be steamed or cooked according to package directions.
- If you are using fresh broccoli, you can steam it for about 4 to 5 minutes, just until tender, in a covered pot over simmering water.
- Combine cheese, milk, and onion powder in a medium saucepan or saucier over medium heat.
- Heat for 7 minutes, stirring regularly until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper, as well as ground cayenne or hot sauce if needed.
- Go ahead and serve sauce separately or over broccoli placed on a serving dish or in a bowl.
