People who don’t even like broccoli casseroles beg me to make this comforting broccoli cheese casserole recipe. It's similar to a classic green bean casserole, but the melted cheese just puts it over the top. —Elaine Hubbard, Pocono Lake, Pennsylvania

1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
1 cup sour cream
1-1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
1 can (6 ounces) french-fried onions, divided
2 packages (16 ounces each) frozen broccoli florets, thawed

Preheat oven to 325°. In a large saucepan, combine soup, sour cream, 1 cup cheese and 1-1/4 cups onions; heat through over medium heat, stirring until blended, 4-5 minutes. Stir in broccoli. Transfer to a greased 2-qt. baking dish.
Bake, uncovered, until bubbly, 25-30 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and onions. Bake until cheese is melted, 10-15 minutes.

I liked using this as a base recipie then adding to it. I sauteed onions, garlic, butter and added the veggies to the onions (frozen corn and julienned carrots and a small broccoli crown-had them in the fridge and wanted to use them up) added salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. In separate pan did the cream of mushroom (may do cream of celery next time) then sour cream and closer to a cup and half of cheese then added a few handfuls of spinach and the crunchy onions. Cooked two cups of whole wheat penne then combined everything in a casserole dish topped with cheese and crunchy onions. Super tasty!

Amount of sour cream took over the taste (and smell) of this recipe. May be using half may have changed things?

This is a favorite recipe with my family. The sour cream is the secret ingredient. I used frozen egg noodles and Pacific cream of chicken sauteed onion and mushrooms.

This is a good recipe. It is Green Bean Casserole using broccoli instead of green beans.
