When we used to gather for a pre-Christmas meal with members of one branch of our extended family, one of our cousins usually brought a Broccoli Casserole that was always among our most-talked-about foods in our conversations on the car rides home from gathering.
One year, my mother put together a cookbook of some family recipes to share with each household who attended the meals. This recipe, which we credit to our cousin Kim Marks, was in that cookbook.
The flavors of this Broccoli Casserole just blend so well, and it is full of both plenty of broccoli and all of the ingredients that make so many casseroles so delicious, including condensed soup, cheese and bread/cracker crumbs. We’ve started making it at least once each holiday season in our kitchen, and we hope you’ll try it out with your family.
