Description

Our Broccoli Casserole recipe is a delicious and easy side dish for any meal (perfect for the Holidays)! Definitely a family favorite recipe!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 68 cups fresh broccoli florets
  • 1 (10oz) can cream of mushroom soup (or homemade – see Notes)
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, freshly grated & divided (more if desired)
  • 1 cup Ritz crackers, roughly crushed 
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Prep: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 
  2. Steam Broccoli: Add a steaming basket to a large saucepan and fill the bottom with water (to just below the basket). Add broccoli to the steamer basket. Cover and bring to a boil. Steam until broccoli is very tender/soft – they should almost be falling apart. Drain.
  3. Combine: Add cooked broccoli to an 11-inch oval dish (or comparable square baking pan) along with cream of mushroom soup, mayo and cheddar cheese. Stir to combine. 
  4. Topping: Cover with crushed crackers and drizzle melted butter on top. 
  5. Bake: Place in preheated oven, middle rack and uncovered, for approx. 30 minutes or until nice and bubbly. 
  6. Serve: Remove and let cool slightly before serving immediately.

Notes

  • Cream of Mushroom Soup: if using a store-bought version, we recommend Pacific Foods Organic Cream of Mushroom Soup!
  • Dairy-Free Cream of Mushroom Soup: we have a tried-and-true recipe for Dairy-Free Cream of Mushroom Soup if you want to sub that in.
  • Dairy-Free: to make this dairy-free use a dairy-free cream of mushroom soup (like the one linked above), dairy-free cheese and vegan butter.
  • Gluten-Free: to make this gluten-free use a gluten-free version of Ritz crackers (or something similar).
  • Storage: store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
