Broccoli & Cheese Casserole

This is one of our favorite side dishes for the holidays or just anytime.


1 (32 ounce) package frozen broccoli cuts, cooked according to package directions
1/2 cup of butter or margarine or 8 tablespoons, melted
1 1/2 sleeves of ritz crackers (can use more), crumbled
1/2 to 3/4 of a 32 ounce package of velveeta cheese, cut in chunks

Cook broccoli cuts according to package directions. (I cook mine in a bowl in the microwave covered with saran wrap. Add 1/2 the melted butter and the velveeta cheese chunks to the broccoli. Stir to melt. Add the other half of the melted butter to the ritz cracker crumbs. Spray a 2 quart casserole dish and add a layer of the broccoli and cheese on the bottom. Next add a layer of the buttered crumbs. Continue to do this ending with the top covered with the buttered crumbs.

Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes until the top is browned. Makes 8 to 10 servings. Enjoy!
