Cook ground beef and onion in a large broiler-safe nonstick skillet over medium heat, breaking the beef into bite-size pieces with a wooden spoon, until the beef is no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Add broccoli; cook, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli is tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Add flour, sage and garlic; cook, stirring constantly, until the beef and vegetables are well coated in the flour mixture, about 1 minute. Add milk and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in cream cheese and Cheddar until melted, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in salt and pepper. Mix breadcrumbs, oil and paprika in a small bowl. Sprinkle evenly over the mixture in the skillet. Broil the casserole until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and the edges are bubbling, 1 to 3 minutes.

Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
