Broccoli "Comfort" Casserole!


This is definitely a comfort food. It keeps well in the fridge and warms up great in the microwave!

* Chop up a couple of bunches (2lbs) of broccoli and steam it till tender. Drain and spread out evenly in a 9x13 cake pan.

* In a seperate bowl mix together 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup, 4oz jar of pimentos (if you don't have pimentos you may use a 1/2 cup of chopped red peppers, or a 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes), 1 cup of grated cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup of mayonnaise (yes, I said Mayo!). Then I splash a little white wine or a squirt of lemon juice. You may add a tsp of yellow curry if you like it (I love it).

*Spread the mixture evenly on top of the broccoli.

*Bake uncovered for 30 minutes in a 350 degree oven.

I serve this yummy cassarole over rice with a nice green salad on the side.

Note: You may add chopped, cooked chicken. Just sprinkle it in with the broccoli before spreading the sauce on top.
