This Broccoli Cheddar Mac & Cheese is a rich, comforting twist on a classic, inspired by Panera’s fan-favorite. Tender pasta is combined with lightly blanched broccoli florets and tossed in a creamy garlic cheese sauce. Three types of cheese—cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan—blend together with heavy cream to deliver an indulgent, melty finish. A hint of mustard and seasoning brings depth, while the broiler adds that irresistible golden top. Quick, easy, and perfect for cozy nights or impressive lunches, this one-pan meal is sure to become a staple in your rotation. And yes—it's only missing the bread bowl.
