Ingredients
2 lbs fresh broccoli steamed
1 tablespoon dried minced onion
1 tablespoon dried parsley
½ tablespoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
8 oz cream cheese softened
4 oz sour cream
4 oz mayo
8 oz shredded cheddar
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with cooking spray.

Fold in the broccoli. Spread in the prepared casserole dish. Top with the remaining cheese.
Bake until hot, about 20 min.
Notes
Substitutions: You can swap the cheddar cheese for mozzarella or any other cheese that melts well. Cauliflower works well in place of or in addition to the broccoli. Additions: Feel free to add in some crumbled bacon, cooked chicken, cooked turkey, cauliflower rice, other steamed veggies, etc. This base cheese sauce is great on so many things! Frozen Broccoli: In a pinch, you can sub in frozen broccoli. Cook according to the package and drain it well before adding it. Prep Time: Steam the broccoli and put everything in the casserole dish. Set in the fridge until you are ready to bake. To Reheat: warm it in the oven at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes. Once heated through and the cheese has melted, you can serve. To Freeze: Either freeze the entire batch of broccoli casserole in a large freezer-safe container or in individual servings. It’s best to thaw the broccoli casserole in the fridge before warming up.
