Easy Cheesy Broccoli Casserole | Perfect Holiday Side Dish

This cheesy broccoli casserole is a classic family recipe that has been passed down for generations, and it’s one of the dishes that instantly brings back my favorite holiday memories. My mom made this broccoli casserole every Thanksgiving and Christmas, and now it’s a tradition I continue with my own family. It’s the perfect easy holiday side dish, budget-friendly, and always a crowd-pleaser at any gathering. If you’re looking for a simple, comforting vegetable casserole to add to your holiday menu, this broccoli casserole is always a favorite.

In this video, I show you how to make this creamy, cheesy broccoli casserole step-by-step using fresh broccoli, pantry staples, and ingredients you likely already have on hand. This is a great option if you want an affordable holiday side dish that pairs well with turkey, ham, pot roast, or any family dinner. Whether you’re hosting Thanksgiving, Christmas, or a winter potluck, this recipe is a guaranteed hit.

I also share how to wash and prep broccoli the right way so it stays crisp and clean before cooking. To wash broccoli, mix 1 tablespoon of salt with 10 cups of warm water and soak the florets for two minutes. This simple step helps remove dirt and little bugs often hiding in broccoli while keeping it fresh and ready for your recipe.

If you love easy comfort food, vegetable casseroles, and budget-friendly holiday recipes, this broccoli casserole deserves a spot on your table. It’s delicious, nostalgic, and incredibly simple to make, perfect for busy holiday cooking.
