Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh broccoli florets
- 1 can Condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 1.5 cups Crushed Ritz crackers
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish and set aside.
Step 2
Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the broccoli florets and blanch them for 2-3 minutes. Drain and quickly transfer the florets to an ice water bath to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, eggs, chopped onion, salt, and black pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Step 4
Fold the blanched broccoli into the mixture, ensuring the florets are evenly coated.
Step 5
Pour the broccoli mixture into the greased casserole dish and spread it into an even layer.
Step 6
In a separate bowl, mix the crushed Ritz crackers with the melted butter until evenly coated. Sprinkle the cracker mixture evenly over the broccoli casserole.
Step 7
Top the casserole with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the topping is golden brown.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
