GOOD EATS BROCCOLI NOODLE CASSEROLE
Alton Brown is my FAVORITEST chef on the Food Network. He's funny and, like me, believes that everything in the kitchen should multi task. Most all of his recipes are easy and every-day stuff we can all enjoy. (Let's face it, some of those dishes from some of those cooks are a little too much trouble if you've got a hungry bunch or your market has limited selections.) This one, however, is simple and darn good.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- In a small bowl, combine mayo, sour cream, cheese, eggs, salt pepper, and ramen seasoning packet. In another bowl, combine the broccoli, mushrooms, and broken ramen noodles; toss with the mayo to evenly coat.
- Place mixture in a greased 8x8 baking dish (or something similar).
- Bake for 45 minute covered, then 15 minute uncovered to brown. Cool about 15 minute before serving.
Tips:
- Use fresh broccoli: Fresh broccoli has a better flavor and texture than frozen broccoli. If you're using frozen broccoli, be sure to thaw it completely before cooking.
- Don't overcook the broccoli: Overcooked broccoli will be mushy and lose its flavor. Cook it just until it's tender-crisp.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy. A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese works well.
- Don't skimp on the butter: Butter adds flavor and richness to this dish. Don't be afraid to use a generous amount.
- Season the dish to taste: Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for this dish. You may also want to add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Serve the dish immediately: This dish is best served hot out of the oven. If you're making it ahead of time, be sure to reheat it before serving.
Conclusion:
Broccoli noodles and cheese casserole is a delicious and comforting dish that's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Give it a try and see for yourself how delicious it is!
