Broccoli Casserole

Monday Jan 5, 2009

Awhile back, the church my husband’s family attends in Oregon put together a recipe book as a fundraiser for the church.  It is a professionally printed and bound book, Generations of Cherished Recipes from St. Thomas Becket Parishioners.  My mother-in-law gave me a copy for Christmas because the family submitted heavily, so it was her way of passing on a lot of their family recipes to me.  So I’m going to periodically publish some of the recipes bestowed upon me and spread the love!

Submitted by Marilyn Braunger (my grandmother-in-law!)
Serves 4

10 oz. frozen broccoli (1 pkg) 1 pint cottage cheese
1 egg, beaten 1 pkg saltine crackers
1 cube butter or margarine 1 pkg Lipton Onion Soup mix

Melt butter.  Mash crackers.  Mix together.  Cook broccoli as directed on package.  Do not drain the broccoli.  Mix everything together and bake at 350°F for about 45 minutes until brown on top.
