I thought this recipe was just okay. The cheese sauce was a bit too thick for my taste.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cheddar broccoli casserole turned out bland and watery.

I've made this casserole several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. I like to add a bit of garlic and onion powder to the cheese sauce, and sometimes I'll use a different type of cheese, li
