Instructions
 

  • Prep the Broccoli:
  • Steam or blanch broccoli until just tender (about 3–4 minutes), then drain and set aside.
  • Sauté Aromatics:
  • In a medium skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until soft (3–4 minutes), then add garlic and cook 1 more minute.
  • Mix Sauce:
  • In a large bowl, combine sautéed onion and garlic, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, mayonnaise, 1 cup cheddar cheese, salt, pepper, and paprika.
  • Assemble Casserole:
  • Fold in the steamed broccoli. Transfer the mixture into a greased 9x9-inch baking dish. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheddar cheese.
  • Add Topping:
  • In a small bowl, mix crushed crackers with melted butter. Sprinkle over the top of the casserole.
  • Bake:
  • Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly with a golden-brown topping.

Notes

  • Add protein: Mix in cooked shredded chicken or turkey.
  • Make ahead: Assemble up to 24 hours in advance and refrigerate. Bake just before serving.
  • Low-carb version: Use pork rind crumbs or almond flour instead of crackers.
