This Simple broccoli and cheese casserole is loaded with broccoli and cheese. It is creamy, cheesy and delicious. It’s the perfect addition to any holiday dinner.

Green Bean Casserole seems to get all the hype around the holidays. Don’t get me wrong I do enjoy green bean casserole, but have you ever had a broccoli and cheese casserole? This broccoli and cheese casserole is super easy to make with just a few simple ingredients.

My family has holiday traditions just like everyone else, but as I have started taking over most of the cooking and planning for holidays, I have started to change things up a bit. Sticking with older family traditions, but also adding some new traditions. Every Thanksgiving we have the same meal. I few years ago I wanted to make a new side dish. I decided to do a broccoli and cheese casserole. Over the years I have made changes to my original broccoli and cheese casserole, until I found one that my whole family just loved.

What is Broccoli and cheese Casserole?

Broccoli and Cheese Casserole is a casserole dish consisting of broccoli, cheese, cream of mushroom soup, mayonnaise, eggs, and onion. Mushroom soup, mayonnaise, cheese and eggs are mixed together, then mixed into the broccoli. The dish is then baked in the oven until creamy.

Ingredients

broccoli florets– You may use fresh or frozen broccoli florets. broccoli needs to be cooked first.
Cream of mushroom soup– the soup mixing with mayonnaise gives this casserole a creamy texture.
onion (chopped)- You will need 1 large onion chopped, (If your guest does not like onions you way leave them out of the casserole.)
eggs– beaten
mayonnaise– Mayonnaise gives the casserole a creamy texture. I promise your guest will never know this dish has mayonnaise, you can’t even taste it.
shredded cheese– I recommended shredding your own cheese. It melts better than pre-shredded cheese.
salt and pepper
dash of paprika
