  1. Very rich, but quite delicious! I used fresh steamed broccoli instead of frozen. I also used reduced-fat versions of the cream cheese, sour cream, and crackers (and it was still very rich). I mixed half of the cheese right into the casserole and sprinkled the other half on top as written. Thanx for a great new broccoli casserole!
     
  2. Best ever
     
  3. Thanks for the recipe, just entered what I had on hand and it turned out nice. Added potatoes because of my bf. Served chicken with it.
     
  4. Four stars for tastiness but minus one star for being pretty much junk food. Extremely high in fat, calories and cholesterol. Found others' reviews very helpful.
     
  5. I think I expected more, and when I read the calories per serving I was probably biased before I tried it. Just didn't have enough pzazz for me. Agreed with previous comment that cheese mixture was too overwhelming for broccoli.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Living in the south we are very lucky to have an abundance of fresh seafood and other ingredients at our disposal when trying new recipes. My husband and I both love to cook and have learned a lot about cooking from our native Louisianian, Paul Prudhomme (we learned to be very careful with his recipes as they are very spicy - even for us), native New Orleanian, Frank Davis and transplanted Emeril Lagasse. It would be very difficult to pick an all time favorite cookbook since I have approximately 200. I enjoy collecting local cookbooks as well as others from different areas. This picture is obviously when DH and I got married. I cooked all the food and even made my wedding cake.
