Ingredients
- 28 ounces frozen chopped broccoli
- 8 ounces Velveeta Original Loaf
- 1 leeve Ritz crackers crushed
- ½ tick butter divided
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cook broccoli according to package instructions, remove any and all water, and set aside.
- While broccoli cooks; in medium saucepan melt ¼ stick butter with the block of Velveeta cheese until smooth. Then, add broccoli and mix well. Place the broccoli mixture into a lightly oiled casserole dish.
- In small bowl (using the microwave), melt ¼ stick butter, add water, and mix into cracker crumbs with fork. Sprinkle cracker crumb mixture over the broccoli and cheese.
- Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes or until crumbs are golden brown.
Notes
- Fresh Broccoli - You can use fresh broccoli for this reicpe. You will need to rinse and chop the fresh broccoli. Then blanch in boiling water for 2 minutes or until just al dente. Drain and immediately place in cold water to stop the cooking process. Then drain and set to the side.
- Cheese - I have never made this casserole without using Velveeta. So I can't tell you how it will turn out with any other type of cheese.
- Crumb Topping - The buttery RITZ crackers are what make it so delicious. Don't skimp on these; however, one sleeve is enough.
