I make a cauliflower casserole the same way, minus the mayonnaise; I use fresh cauliflower and steam it briefly. Love it! I'll try it with broccoli.

Hi Lilbitmissty-I have been making this recipe for at least 10 years now except I only use 2 pkgs of chopped broccoli and cook the broccoli. Then I add the hot drained broccoli to the cheese/mayo mixture. For the topping, I mix 2 cups of crushed Pepperidge Farms stuffing mix with 1/2 stick of melted butter and sprinkle over the casserole.

This recipe is always requested for our holiday dinners! ${#emotions_dlg.biggrin}$

Sounds delicious, and not too hard to make. Think I'll give it a try sometime this week. Thank you!

There is no fun in doing nothing when you have nothing to do.

Same recipe I have but I add an egg to the mix to bind it, reduce the mayo by 1/2 and sprinkle in some chopped pecans for texture and top it with butter and grated Ritz crackers.

I make something very similiar to this adding Parm cheese and chicken in bite size pieces. Add a splash or lemon juice to the soup mix. Also works with cream of chicken soup.
