I will make this for others in my household and they always love it...never any leftovers. <br/><br/>I hate broccoli with a passion so here's a variation I make for myself: <br/>Substitute fresh button mushrooms for the broccoli and instead of salad dressing/mayo I use low fat sour cream or Neufchatel/cream cheese instead. And of course I always double the cheddar cheese! <br/><br/>All in all, very tasty!

Simple, quick and very tasty! I cook for two and this was a very easy recipe to reduce. I will ad a tad more lemon juice next time and there will definitely be a next time.

My Mom made this since I was a child, also, and this is almost her exact recipe. She added a tsp. of thyme, and that was it. Now, my children enjoy this childhood favorite as much as I did. We consider this our comfort food....loaded with great memories.

Hubby rated this an 8/10!! Woo Hoo! BUT I made quite a few changes. I used canned veggie chicken, chicken & mushroom soup, and mexican blend cheese. I defrosted some broccoli and put all together and threw in the fridge to bake later. Used extra curry powder, but next time, will use even more! :O) Thanks so much for sharing!! :O)

I made a wonderful mistake... I used Italian dressing in place of salad dressing (Miracle Whip). I also used fresh broccoli and broccoli normandy which I steamed fresh. I did omit the curry, for fear the kids would not eat it. It was a big hit, the kids ate the whole thing!!!
