Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups fresh broccoli florets (or frozen, thawed)
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

  2. In a large bowl, combine broccoli, shredded cheddar, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, mayonnaise, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Transfer mixture to prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  4. In a small bowl, combine crushed crackers or breadcrumbs with melted butter. Sprinkle over the broccoli mixture.
