“For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you. . . ” Isaiah 41:13
If you have joined me and my family for Thanksgiving, you most likely have tried Broccoli & Cheese Casserole.
I have had this side dish for Thanksgiving since I was a teenager and once I had hosted my first Thanksgiving Dinner, I have always had it on the menu.
Of course, Broccoli & Cheese Casserole brings back memories of Thanksgiving dinner at home, but it is also D E L I C I O U S!!!!! Creamy and cheesy broccoli, in my opinion, is the best. It is also very quick and easy to make. You pretty much add everything to a bowl (except the bread crumbs) and mix. Just minutes to prepare and ready for the oven,
I don’t actually remember how my family came about this recipe, but what matters is that we did come about this recipe. When I was a child, one of my favorite foods was broccoli and cheese. I just thought it was the best! And to be honest, I still do. 🙂
If you are looking for a new side dish this Thanksgiving (or any foodie holiday), this is it! You can go wrong with Broccoli & Cheese Casserole.
Mama Fawn’s Tips. . .
- It’s important that once you cook the broccoli, you drain it well. You don’t want to end up with a soupy casserole.
- I use the ‘steam in the bag’ broccoli to cut the cooking time.
- You can use frozen chopped broccoli, if you desire.
- If you use low salt cream of mushroom soup, then make sure you adjust the salt in the recipe.
- The stuffing mix I use for this recipe is Pepperidge Farm Herb Seasoned Classic Stuffing.
- Beating the eggs before adding the rest of the ingredients helps the mixture to combine easier.
