BEST CHICKEN BROCCOLI CASSEROLE EVER



Best Chicken Broccoli Casserole Ever image

My friend Kevin made this one night for his own dinner. About 5 or 6 people then wandered into his house around dinnertime and demanded "just a taste". Kevin had to go to McDonald's because we ate all his supper! Although I am not a fan of soup food in general, this is one of the best incarnations of the genre I have ever seen! Bring on the can opener and enjoy!

BEST EVER BROCCOLI CHEESE CASSEROLE BAKE



Best Ever Broccoli Cheese Casserole Bake image

My sister got this recipe from one of her in-laws after falling in love with it a few years ago and it's been our family favorite ever since! It's so good with practically any meal, whether a mundane weeknight dinner or a more elaborate thanksgiving feast. Also, although it truly does taste the best with the cream of mushroom soup it can be made with any cream soup (I usually use broccoli cheese or 1 cream of chicken and 1 cream of celery because of picky hubby!). Oh, and I like to add a sprinkle of onion powder to the mix too! Edited to Add: I've been mixing 1/2 cup breadcrumbs and 1/2 cup parmesan cheese for the topping instead of just breadcrumbs. It's really good that way too!

BEST BROCCOLI CASSEROLE EVER!!!!



Best Broccoli Casserole Ever!!!! image

I found this on another website, but it's worth sharing. I altered the original recipe just a little bit based on experience. As a side note, my Dad HATES broccoli, but the first time this was made for dinner, he not only ate it, but he had a second serving!!

Provided by Melissa Lambert

Categories     Side Casseroles

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 10 oz. packages frozen broccoli
1 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
1 small onion diced
1 16 oz. container sour cream
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of broccoli soup undiluted
2 c shredded cheddar cheese
1 (6 ounce) package herb-seasoned dry bread stuffing mix
1/4 c butter, melted

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Pre-cook the broccoli about half way through. DO NOT over cook the broccoli because it will be mushy later.
  • 2. In a large bowl, mix together broccoli, corn, and onions. Stir in sour cream, soup, and shredded cheese. In a separate bowl, toss together stuffing mix and melted butter. Spread broccoli mixture into a 2-3 quart casserole dish and cover with stuffing mix.
  • 3. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until heated through and browned on top. Sprinkle remaining 1 3/4 cups cheese on top and bake an additional 5 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli. Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets. Avoid crowns that are yellowing or have loose florets, as these are signs of age and poor quality.
  • Cook the broccoli properly. Broccoli should be cooked until it is tender-crisp, but not mushy. Overcooked broccoli will lose its flavor and nutrients.
  • Use a variety of cheese. A combination of sharp cheddar, Parmesan, and cream cheese is a classic choice for broccoli casserole, but you can also experiment with other types of cheese, such as Gruyère, mozzarella, or Gouda.
  • Add other vegetables. Broccoli casserole is a great way to sneak in extra vegetables, such as carrots, celery, or onions. You can also add cooked chicken or shrimp for a protein boost.
  • Make it ahead of time. Broccoli casserole can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving. This makes it a great option for busy weeknights.

Conclusion:

Broccoli casserole is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its creamy sauce, tender broccoli, and cheesy topping, it's sure to be a hit at your next potluck or family gathering. So next time you're looking for a side dish that is both delicious and nutritious, give broccoli casserole a try. You won't be disappointed!
