Awesome Broccoli-Cheese Casserole
Makes 6-8 servings
1 can (10 3/4-ounce) cream of mushroom soup
1 cup mayonnaise
1 large egg, beaten
1/4 cup finely chopped onion (optional)
3 (10-ounce) packages frozen cut broccoli
8 ounces (2 cups) grated sharp Cheddar cheese
salt
ground black pepper
paprika
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 13x9x2" baking
dish.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together condensed
soup, mayonnaise, beaten egg, and, if desired, chopped
onion.
3. Place frozen broccoli into a very large mixing bowl. (I like
to use my large stainless steel bowl to mix this recipe
thoroughly.) Break up the frozen broccoli. Using a rubber
spatula, scrape soup-mayonnaise mixture on top of
broccoli and mix well. Sprinkle on cheese and mix well.
Using a rubber spatula, scrape and pour mixture into
prepared baking dish. Smooth top of casserole using
spatula. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and paprika.
4. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 mins to 1 hour. Serve hot.
