Ingredients
- 2 pounds fresh broccoli, trimmed and cut up
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the casserole
- 1/4 cup chopped celery
- 1/4 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1 (8-ounce) can sliced water chestnuts
- 1 (10 3/4-ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 pound cheese product, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup grated Cheddar
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9 by 13-inch casserole.
Steam the broccoli until tender, about 10 minutes. In the meantime, melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat and saute the celery, mushrooms, and onion until softened, about 10 minutes; drain. Combine the broccoli and the cooked vegetables in a bowl.
Heat the soup and softened cheese product in a saucepan over low heat until the cheese melts. Pour it over the broccoli mixture. Add the garlic salt and pepper and combine.
Put it into the buttered casserole dish and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle the top with the grated Cheddar the last 5 minutes of baking.

I used colby jack instead of cheddar. I also added french fried onions to the top once it was out of the oven and the family loved it!!! I am thinking about trying it again sometime with polish sausage added as a casserole dish.

Instead of the same ol' same ol' steamed broccoli for Thanksgiving I decided to try this recipe. It was a huge hit (especially with the kids. I have been asked to make it again with Christmas dinner. This next time I will try it with half a can of condensed cream of mushroom soup or maybe even condensed cream of broccoli soup to see if it will be slightly thicker. Thanks for this fabulous alternative Paula!!

Like some others here, I decided to add about 2 cups of chicken (finely chopped and 2 cups of pasta (rotini to it. It turned out really well. I left out the water chestnuts and used colby jack cheese instead of cheedar. Next time I make this, I may use 3/4 of a pound of cheese instead of 1/2 a pound to make it creamier. I think that will help balance out the added chicken and pasta. And I think I'll add extra mushrooms too.
