Crock Pot Broccoli Casserole Recipe

Broccoli Casserole is not just for the holidays. You can enjoy this Crock Pot Broccoli Casserole recipe any time of the year.

Why don't you let your crock pot do all the work with this easy Crock Pot Broccoli Casserole recipe made with fresh broccoli and real cheddar cheese?

Cheesy Crock Pot Broccoli Casserole recipe

I love using fresh broccoli to make a big cheesy serving bowl full of broccoli casserole to serve with my Thanksgiving dinner. You can use frozen broccoli florets to make this Crock Pot Broccoli Casserole.

If you decide to use frozen broccoli keep in mind that the cooking time will be about half the time that you would need to cook the fresh broccoli florets.

I would also decrease the amount of milk by half to allow for the extra moisture the frozen broccoli will add. If it seems to be too thick even with the extra moisture you can add ¼ cup of milk at a time to thin it out.

I know there are plenty of crock pot broccoli casserole recipes out there using Velveeta. This is not one of them.

I used a block of real medium cheddar cheese and grated it. I have nothing against Velveeta and have used it many times in broccoli casserole recipes.

Or in my Crock Pot Macaroni and Cheese recipe which I will be serving to my family and friends on Thanksgiving day.

The kids and adults love it and it has become one of my newest favorite Thanksgiving side dish recipes. 

Broccoli Casserole is a favorite Thanksgiving side dish recipe. Served in white single serve bowls.
