Broccoli and Cheddar Granola Casserole

1 large head of broccoli, rinsed and chopped
1/2 stick butter
2 cloves garlic
1/2 small onion
1 small can chicken broth
salt and pepper, to taste
2 cups granola cereal with almonds, ground  (measure 2 cups ground, not whole)
1 lb shredded cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350.  In large casserole dish add 1/4 stick butter (reserve other 1/4), add broccoli.  Puree garlic and onion, pour over broccoli, add broth and season with s & p.  Sprinkle cheese on top then granola.  Add remaining butter to top.  Cover and bake for approx. 50 - 60 mins.  Toss if desire to combine flavors.

Note:  I purchase my granola at Whole Foods.  I like the brown sugar granola with almonds.
