This Broccoli Cheese Casserole is my #1 favorite side dish! It’s SO good! It’s special enough for a holiday table & simple enough for a weeknight meal!
Broccoli is one of those foods that I didn’t like as a child, but I sure do eat up as an adult. My favorite way to eat broccoli is in this casserole. It’s so scrumptious & irresistible – even my kids look forward to having it. It is on several weekly menus, plus every holiday menu too – including our upcoming Easter dinner. I also love to make this for Thanksgiving & Christmas dinners.
I would take this broccoli casserole over any green bean casserole for sure. There is something just so warm & comforting about it, not to mention that oozy-ness of the cheese. Oh my.
I mean, c’mon. Look at the pictures. There’s your proof right there! How could that not be good?

This looks very yummy! Have to try it for my hubby when he comes home from work next week. We do love our green vegetables and cheese.

I’ve never tried it with anything else, we go thru them pretty fast here. But, I don’t see why trying another combination wouldn’t work. Let me know how it turns out!

Can you substitute the cream of mushroom for something else?

You can use another ‘cream of’ soup such as cream of chicken.

I love this recipe! Found it a few years ago and made it for Family Christmas dinner – big hit. First time I tried it – I accidently sprinkled cayenne pepper instead of paprika – It had a nice little kick. I also switched the 1 cup mayo to 1/2 cup mayo and 1/2 cup sour cream :-). USE REAL MAYONAISSE it makes the difference.

When I tell you I have been looking for this recipe for years, I mean literally the majority of my life. My grandmother used to make this when I was little back in the early 90s. I lost touch with her when I was young and I never got the recipe. I only made it with her less than a handful of times but luckily I could remember at least half of the ingredients. Typing the ingredients and going through many recipes on Google I finally found this one. It sounded extremely similar so I made it and it tastes exactly the same!!! So freaking good. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! 😁🖤 You have put 20 years of searching for the recipe to rest.
