I'm sure this is delicious. But considering that 80% of the calories in this dish are from fat (and that's not even including the Ritz crackers) , it's probably not something I would make without tinkering with it. Maybe use low fat versions of the sour cream and soup, leave out the butter entirely, and use something besides Ritz crackers for the topping. This is just my opinion, but what with obesity becoming epidemic in the US, I think if this is the only way kids will eat broccoli, they're better off skipping it entirely.

This was a hit with my family, who are very picky eaters. It was hard to stop eating it! Thank you!

I just made this tonight, and we thought it was GREAT! It's different from the standard broccoli casserole. In adding the eggs and all the (lovely)butter, it gave it a much lighter texture. It doesn't have the heavy gravy, but almost soufflet-like. I made a couple minor substitutions, only because I was out of a couple things. Since I was out of cheddar cheese, I used half a jar of that cheddar spread, and I only had the little white cheddar cheezits crackers. I'm sure there's not much difference. It's a definite keeper! Thanks for posting it.

We really enjoyed this easy to make casserole. I used frozen broccoli spears and choped them a little myself, I like the bigger pieces. This went well with our steaks.
