How to Make Best Broccoli Cheese Casserole

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 pound of broccoli florets and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until bright green and crisp-tender. Drain immediately and set aside to cool slightly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup of milk, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 10.75 ounces condensed cream of mushroom soup, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Gently fold the cooked broccoli florets into the cheese mixture until evenly distributed.
  4. Pour the mixture into a greased 3-quart casserole dish.
  5. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups crushed buttery crackers evenly over the top. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
  6. Bake in a preheated 325°F (160°C) oven for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly. The casserole is done when the center is set and no longer jiggles.
  7. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
