Broccoli and Cheese Casserole

This one is from my mother-in-law. It's quick, easy, and tasty; great for potluck suppers and reunions! It's also one of Poseidon's favorites, so of course I had to snag the recipe from her :-)


2 pkg. frozen broccoli (or big bag)
2 cups of Velveeta cheese (cubed)
2 sticks of margarine
1 1/2 cups of Ritz cracker crumbs

Cook broccoli as directed on package. Drain water and immediately add Velveeta cheese and 1 stick of margarine. Cover and let set until margarine and cheese are melted. Melt 1 stick of margarine in small saucepan (or microwave) and add cracker crumbs to melted margarine. Mix well. Pour broccoli into casserole pan, then top with crumbs. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes. Bubbly, little brown on top (not much). May be made 1 day before it is baked and kept in fridge.

Now I have also added cubed cooked chicken to this, which appeals to the kids, and that makes it a one-bowl dinner!
