We're lucky to have fresh fruits and vegetables year-round. I put bountiful Arizona broccoli to great use in this rich side dish. Even those who don't care for broccoli finish off big helpings. — Carol Strickland, Yuma, Arizona

I make this recipe often as a side dish (I usually half the recipe). My family loves it along with fish, chicken, or meatloaf. It is a great alternative to starchy side dishes like potato, rice, or pasta.

Fixed this Thanksgiving day, 2010, and we didn't really care for it. I opted to use half of the eggs, and so glad I didn't do the whole 12. It was almost like an egg bake. My brother said it was lacking something and I agree - mostly cheese. Sorry.

I made this casserole for Christmas Day dinner for a group of men and women at a homeless shelter. It is absolutely delicious! There wasn't a drop left over. I received numerous compliments on this recipe. This one is a keeper!
