Easy Broccoli Casserole

 

This Easy Broccoli Casserole Recipe is a family favorite! My family has been having this dish at holidays and special family events since I was very young and it is a staple in our family. A great twist with this recipe is that you can add in leftover turkey or chicken and it turns this from a side dish to a main meal!

I start off by thawing and cooking two boxes of chopped broccoli in the microwave. Once cooked, drain well, and place in a mixing bowl.

Add in the minced onions, mayonnaise, egg, and cream of mushroom soup. Mix well. Then add in the Cheese Whiz!

Again, mix well and pour into a casserole dish. You can either top the casserole with stuffing mix or crushed up Cheese Its, whichever is your preference. We always use the stuffing mix and it gives it a nice crunchy element!

Bake in a ˚400 oven for 30-40 minutes. If the topping begins to get to brown, you can cover loosely with foil.
