Mom's Broccoli Casserole
Carol Burciaga

"Here is my Mom's recipe for Broccoli Casserole.  We had it every year for Thanksgiving and for Christmas.  We all loved it but that was the only time Mom made it!  I guess that is why it is still so special to all of us."

1 (10-ounce package)
frozen broccoli, steamed

1 tablespoon flour

1 cup milk

salt and pepper to taste

2 slices bacon,
cooked crisp and crumbled

1/4 cup buttered bread crumbs.

2. Pour sauce over broccoli in 9x9" baking dish.

3. Top with almonds, cooked bacon, and buttered bread crumbs.

4. Bake at 350F degrees for 20-30 minutes, or until bubbly.
