Recipe View 53 mins Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is heated through, the cheese is melted, and the top is golden brown and bubbly. (45-60 minutes)

For a richer flavor, use freshly grated Cheddar cheese instead of pre-shredded.
Add a pinch of garlic powder or a dash of hot sauce to the broccoli mixture for an extra layer of flavor.
If you don't have Ritz crackers, you can substitute with other buttery crackers or even breadcrumbs tossed with melted butter.
To prevent the cracker topping from burning, cover the casserole dish with foil for the first 30 minutes of baking, then remove the foil for the remaining time.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the casserole, such as chopped bell peppers, mushrooms, or carrots.
