Terrific recipe that will be a regular "go to" from now on. The preparation was easy and the flavor and consistency of the dish was wonderful without the usual mayo and soup based versions. I made a couple of minor changes using brown rice and for the cheese did half parmesan and half mozzarella....
Broccoli Casserole
When my kids were at home this dish was a frequent request. It's quick to put together for nights when you're on the run, and leftovers can easily be stored in the refrigerator. CLReader.
