French Onion Broccoli Cheese Casserole
A creamy and cheesy broccoli casserole with a crispy onion topping.
Equipment
- 9x9-inch baking dish For baking the casserole
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb broccoli florets, chopped
- 1 can unsalted cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup refrigerated sour cream-based French onion dip
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 container French fried onions
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a 9x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped broccoli, cream of mushroom soup, French onion dip, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, and half of the French fried onions. Mix well until everything is evenly coated.
- Spread the broccoli mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
- After 25 minutes, remove the casserole from the oven. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese and French fried onions on top for that extra crunch.
- Return the casserole to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep an eye on it to prevent over-browning.
Notes
For added flavor, consider mixing in some cooked chicken or bacon bits. You can substitute the broccoli with other vegetables like cauliflower or green beans for a different twist.
