    Great for the holidays...

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    We've been making broccoli and cheese casserole for years, but this is by far the best one. The flavors are great and it's... really easy to prepare. Will be making it again next week for Thanksgiving and for many more after that.Read more

    Gooey Cheesey Good

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    This was a great dish, I served for a couple wine dinners, and even people who were leary of Broc & Cheese loved it. ONLY... change I did was left out Cayenne and used about 1 tsp of smoked paprika in the topping. Have done several of Aaron's recipes and they have all been Great. We will definitely make this again. Thanks!Read more

    Dissapointed!

    Rated: 1 stars out of 5
    I made this for my family on Easter, It didn't go over well. We all thought it had way too much paprika and herb taste which... overwhemed the the whole dish. I should have tried it out first before serving it as a side dish on a holiday! Well I will never make that mistake again....Read more

    EXCELLENT

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I've made this recipe several times and it is GREAT! I love the spicy topping. When I have guest who I know can only handle... a little heat I back off of some of the spices.Read more

    Too many spices....not enough substance.

    Rated: 1 stars out of 5
    I am so bummed that is did not work. It tasted like Velveeta and broccoli with really spicy ritz crumbs. I didn't see the... 20 people rating or I would have moved on. Read more
