About Broccoli casserole

Broccoli casserole is a comforting, oven-baked dish popular in American cuisine, typically served as a side at family gatherings and holiday meals. This creamy casserole is often made with fresh or frozen broccoli florets, a rich cheese sauce, a binding agent like cream or condensed soup, and crispy toppings such as breadcrumbs or crushed crackers. The dish provides fiber, vitamins C and K, and antioxidants from the broccoli, supporting overall health and digestion. However, its nutritional profile can vary greatly depending on the ingredients; high amounts of cheese, butter, and processed soups can add excess saturated fat, sodium, and calories. Health-conscious versions may incorporate low-fat dairy options, whole-grain toppings, and minimal added salt to enhance its benefits. Broccoli casserole is a versatile dish that balances indulgence and nutrition, offering a flavorful way to enjoy nutrient-rich vegetables.
