RITZY BROCCOLI CASSEROLE
Buttery crackers, creamy, and cheesy...oh yeah, broccoli for the health benefits:) OK, so its not healthy but it's sooo good! Not my recipe but a coworker's. She's actually not allowed to bring anything but a doubled up version of this to any potlucks. Somehow I had managed to reach the age of 35 without ever having any type of broccoli casserole and now will only ever have this one. This is a very easy recipe to double or triple as well. This is best reheated back in the oven. I form HD foil into a pan shape for single servings and reheat at 350 for 10 min or so. The top gets crisp and buttery again.

Tips:
- Choose the right broccoli. Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green and tightly closed. Avoid crowns with yellow or wilted florets.
- Prepare the broccoli properly. Cut the broccoli into small florets and blanch them in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Drain the broccoli and rinse it with cold water to stop the cooking process.
- Use a variety of cheeses. A combination of cheddar, Parmesan, and mozzarella cheeses gives the casserole a rich and flavorful taste. You can also add crumbled bacon or chopped ham for extra flavor.
- Don't overcook the casserole. The casserole is done when the cheese is melted and bubbly and the broccoli is tender. Overcooking will make the broccoli mushy and the cheese tough.
- Serve the casserole immediately. Ritz Broccoli Casserole is best served hot out of the oven. You can garnish it with chopped parsley or chives for extra flavor.

Ritz Broccoli Casserole is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its creamy cheese sauce, tender broccoli, and crispy Ritz cracker topping, this casserole is sure to be a hit at your next potluck or family gathering.
