Very yummy recipe. I baked it in my13x9 dish. I used a cheese blend and only added salt and pepper. I added about 1 tsp of kosher salt but I think i will add more next time. It was very easy to make. If you bake it in a 13x9 it will speed up the cooking time to about 20 minutes. I also served it with some country potatoes. the DH loved it.

Great recipe! I did make some changes though just because I did not have any broccoli or swiss. Instead, I used cut up ham and pepper jack cheese. It came out awesome! The pepper jack cheese gave the dish a nice kick!

I personally think this dish would taste better with the cheese incorperated into the dish, and a more flavorful cheese such as sharp cheddar. Probably more than 1/2 cup also. Seasonings are of course a personal taste but I felt this needed more seasoning. This is a very easy dish to perpare but not something I would make again.

This is very good. I was alone for dinner tonight so I cut the recipe in half and made it in a small casserole dish. I didn't have any swiss cheese, so I used pepperjack instead. It was good, but I bet it's great with the swiss. Don't leave out the mayo and the parmesan - they make the dish!

Simple and wonderful. Used mozzarella cheese in place of swiss, 3 tbsp of each mayo and parmesan. Also peeled and diced stalks in with florets. This made 2 9" pie dishes. I made them intending to pop them both in the freezer but only one made it there..we had the other one right away - gorgeous! Thanks!!
