A delightful and creamy broccoli casserole with a cheesy topping, perfect for family dinners or gatherings.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Always preheat your oven to ensure even cooking.
Steam the broccoli until tender but still vibrant green.
Avoid overcooking the broccoli to maintain its texture and color.
In a saucepan, sauté the celery and onion in butter until softened.
Cook on medium heat to prevent burning the butter.
In a mixing bowl, combine the steamed broccoli, sautéed vegetables, and cream of mushroom soup.
Mix gently to avoid breaking the broccoli florets.
Season the mixture with garlic powder and black pepper.
Adjust seasoning to taste for a personalized flavor.
Transfer the mixture to a greased casserole dish.
Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly.
Top with shredded cheddar cheese.
Ensure the cheese covers the entire surface for a uniform topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until bubbly and golden on top.
Place the casserole dish on the middle rack for even baking.
Let the casserole cool slightly before serving.
Cooling allows the flavors to meld together.
