Basic ingredients for the simple recipe

Start by gathering your four basic ingredients:

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius, cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets and place them in an ovenproof baking dish.

Chopped broccoli florets in an oven dish

You can use broccoli as suggested in this recipe, or swap some or all of the broccoli for cauliflower, zucchini, mushrooms, Brussels sprouts, or other vegetables you have on hand.

As for the heavy cream and sour cream, you can add all the creamy ingredients to make 1 cup. Feel free to swap some or all of the cream for cream cheese, ricotta, whipped cream, or any other creamy ingredient you like.

Adding heavy cream and sour cream

Pour both creams over the chopped broccoli and stir everything together well.

Add grated cheese

Just like with the creams, you can use any grated cheese you like. Choose one or a mixture of:

  • Mozzarella cheese
  • Cheddar cheese
  • Parmesan cheese
  • Gruyere cheese
  • Monterey Jack cheese
  • Fontina cheese

Add half the cheese to the casserole and mix to combine, then top with the other half cup of cheese, or more, until you have a cheese-covered casserole.
