How to Make Scalloped Broccoli And Cheese Casserole

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 pound broccoli florets and cook until crisp-tender, about 5-7 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 10.75 ounces (1 can) condensed cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 cup milk, and 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
Spread the cooked broccoli evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Pour the soup mixture over the broccoli, spreading evenly.
Sprinkle an additional 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional) over the top.
In a small bowl, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Stir in 1/2 cup breadcrumbs until lightly coated.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the casserole.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown.
If adding cooked chicken (about 1.5 cups cubed chicken), layer it over the broccoli before adding the soup mixture. Increase the soup mixture slightly to ensure adequate coverage (approximately 1/4 cup more).
