Betty’s Simple and Tasty Broccoli and Cheese Casserole Recipe
In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make a quick and easy Broccoli and Cheese Casserole. With only a handful of ingredients, you can have an tasty and elegant oven-baked casserole–just right for rounding out a meal! Ingredients: 10 oz. frozen broccoli florets (You may use chopped broccoli.) 8 oz. Cheez Whiz (You may substitute 8 oz. Velveeta cheese.) 1/2 stick butter or margarine, melted 1 inner packet of Ritz crackers, coarsely crushed cooking oil spray Place 10 oz. frozen broccoli florets in a medium pot that contains 1 inch of rapidly boiling water. Bring back to a boil, and cook for about 5 minutes, or until tender-crisp. When the broccoli is ready, drain off the water through a colander into the sink. Return the broccoli to its original pot. Now, add 8 oz. Cheez Whiz to the cooked broccoli, and stir gently until blended, without disturbing the broccoli florets too much. Next, make a topping: Melt 1/2 stick butter or margarine in a saucepan. Add 1 inner packet of Ritz crackers that have been coarsely crushed. Mix with melted butter or margarine. Now, spray a small casserole dish with oil spray, pour in the broccoli-Cheese Whiz mix, and smooth it out at bit. Top with the buttered crushed Ritz cracker crumbs. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 15 minutes. The Cheese Whiz will be bubbly around the edges, and the cracker crumbs will be light brown and crispy. Remove from oven and serve while hot. Great! –And easy, too! Note: This makes a very small casserole. You may …

really nice and easy recipe betty thanks
Yes, definitely! Just cook the rice according to the instructions on the package, and use the same amount of cooked rice as the instant rice makes. Thanks for asking!

Hi Betty this seems very good!I was wondering if you could use long grain rice instead of minute rice?
That sounds wonderful–and very simple! Thanks for the tip! I will try that soon!

Hi, I wanted to let you know an even more simple variation of this recipe that I have been doing for about 5 years. My family is large and each like different vegetables, so instead of broccolli, I use a 28 oz bag of california blend. Also, to make it quick, I simply put the whole bag of frozen vegetables in a casserole dish, and drop the cheeze whiz , in spoonfuls, on top( a whole jar) and cover. I cook it on 350 for 30 minutes then stir. Then add topping & cook about 15 more minutes. SIMPLE
You are *so* welcome! I love to cook for people like you!

betty I’m a 26 year old guy who is goin to college and you saved me from eating horrible cooking lol thank you for teaching me how to cook gourmet meals on the fly. Thank you very much
When using *fresh* broccoli, *definitely* wash it! I used frozen broccoli, which has been processed in a procedure that includes thorough washing. Any *frozen* vegetable is meant to be used straight from the freezer with no washing or other preparation. Thanks for your question!
