After reading the reviews, I decided to just make it as much as possible like the recipe and decide for myself. I didn't have frozen broccoli, so used fresh and added about 1/4 cp of the liquid that was used to cook the broccoli into the casserole. I didn't have the little round crackers either, so I just used the square saltines-type crackers that I had on hand. Everything turned out perfectly. I don't think that a single thing needs to be changed in this recipe!

This is a great dish! I made mine a little differently. I used 3-4 bunches of fresh broccoli and cooked it. I used the 12oz cube of Velveeta, cubed and 36 Ritz crackers crushed and divided. Mixed the broccoli, cheese and half of the crushed crackers in a bowl & then melted butter & added to other 1/2 of crumbs and topped the casserole with it. Even people who don't like broccoli loved it, including my 9 yr old daughter! Will defintely make again.

Everybody loved this. I don't like broccoli, so I didn't try it. I added milk to make the cheese creamier and garlic and pepper for flavor.

This is the best broccoli casserole!!! There are some tips to make it better though if it turns out to dry for you. 1. The best bowl to use is one of those round pyrex bowls with the lid. If you need more then just do another one in a separate bowl. These are the best because they aren't too deep and not too flat. 2. Cook broccoli in pan just enough to thaw it, drain the water then spread brocolli between paper towels on countertop to dab up excess water. It should not be wet. 3. After shredding the cheese, chill it. It's so much easier to handle if you do it this way. 4. Layer broccoli and cheese. Cheese should be the last layer on top. 5. Crush crackers pretty fine with maybe a few little chunky bits. 6. Evenly coat butter, be careful not to pour, but drizzle it until all crumbs are evenly coated. 7. It only needs to be in the oven 20 minutes or until top is golden brown. This should have a nice crispy buttery taste on top and broccoli should be soft, tender, and very cheesy. It should not be dry at all Excellent.

"The best broccoli I have ever had" That was the review I got last night at a large family dinner. The menu has been changed for Thanksgiving to inculde this as the veggie of choice.

Definitely a little dry but might be better with a little tweaking. Next time I'm going to try and layer the cheese throughout the casserole instead of just putting it on top.

This was awful. The cooking temperature was way off, and the casserole was dry and unflavorful. I would never make this one again.

I really didn't like this one very much. I thought it sounded like the stuff I had as a little girl, but it was pretty dry. Lots of reviewers mention adding some type of soup to the mix, but that is not this recipe, there are others on the site that do include the soup in their ingredients. I kind of wish I had tried them. I also was intrigued by the reviewer who melted her cheese with the broccoli in the microwave and then put it in the over. I wanted broccoli casserole with no soup, so I will try that and perhaps it will turn out better for me. Thanks.

This is one of my favorites! I cooked the broccoli in the microwave until it is nice and hot. Drain any water. Then I take 1/2 the butter (apprx 4 TBLS) and cut the Velveeta into cubes and add both to the broccoli. Microwave again, stirring occassionally so that it becomes a creamy broccoli and cheese mixture. Then, I pour into the baking dish and mix the crushed crackers with the remaining melted butter and pour overall. Bake and viola! You've got yourself a GREAT side dish! You won't get any frozen bits and this microwave process speeds things up. I love it and only serve it on special occassions and holidays. GREAT RECIPE LEIGH!

Made this for Christmas dinner. I think it was a little dry. Next time I will use less cracker crumbs and maybe mix in half a can of cheese or cream of broccoli soup. However, everyone seemed to gobble it up...:)

Half of the broccoli did not get cooked! It was ice cold. I had to heat up the whole casserole in the microwave, even after leaving it in the oven for longer than the recipe called for.

This is just like our family recipe except we divide the broccoli, cheese, and cracker mixture into thirds and layer it in the baking pan starting with broccoli, then crackers, then cheese. Do this three times. Makes it more moist and the cheese is distibuted through. If it looks dry during baking, pour some more melted butter over the top.
