Broccoli Casserole

Submitted by pink cook

"I made this recipe for Christmas dinner adapted from Cindy Kufeldt's recipe, just substituted the soup and lemon juice, add red pimientos and the result was fantastic. I am planning to make it adding also turkey or chicken leftovers, or maybe ham cubes."
