Broccoli Almond Casserole

Submitted by Food Snob

"This is a family favorite that MUST be at every kind of 'roast' something dinner. It is very rich tasting and what we all consider comfort food. I'm not sure where this originated from, just very thankful to have it. You can use 7oz cheez whiz in place of the shredded cheddar, but I don't like it as much. You can also omit the cheese entirely if you want. I once did that by accident and it tasted just fine."

I made this for Thanksgiving because it was the same ingredients as a wonderful T-day broccoli casserole I made for years...except for bread cubes. What do the bread cubes add to the vegetable dish? I rate my baked casserole 3 because I didn't get the right texture. My old recipe, which I surprisingly cannot find, included crumbled bacon.
