"My family loves this casserole. It always turns out creamy. It is a comfort food for us and we love to have it on a cold winter night. On the WW plan it is core if you omit the cheddar cheese."

We enjoyed this casserole. It was light and creamy, and a great way to get broccoli into my little ones.

I loved this casserole; it was easy to whip up and tasted great. I didn't need any of the reserved liquid though, and I also added salt to the potatoes while they were cooking, so I didn't need to add any afterward. Thanks!

Outstandingly delicious! Easy to do, and we love broccoli so this is another variation for my rotations. You could make this ahead, refrigerated, and then bake. utahmomtotwo you should consider adding the category Make Ahead to your recipe. Thank you utahmomtotwo for posting a keeper! Made for I Recommend tag.

Turned out creamy and delicious, very full of flavour, the dill is a good touch. Easy to prepare, I served it with meatloaf for a delicious 'comfort' supper :D Thanks for a lovely recipe :D
