broccoli casserole

this is one of the easiest recipes ever and it is soooo good! i got this from my aunt who had brought it to a family party years ago. i immediately needed the recipe! this has now become one of my go-to recipes for pot lucks and family parties because it is only 4 ingredients! and now my husband's family always requests this recipe for family get togethers!

Broccoli Casserole
from aunt julie

1 family size (or 3 regular size) bag frozen broccoli cuts
1 lb velveeta (i use the 2% milk kind), cut into 1/4 to 1/2 inch slices (you may or may not use the whole thing... i usually don't)
2 sleeves ritz crackers, crushed
1 tbsp butter, cut into thin slices (optional... i usually don't even use it)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

cook broccoli according to package directions and then drain in colander.

In a casserole dish,  layer 1/3 of the broccoli on top. Cover with 1/3 of the slices of velveeta. Repeat two more times.

Place in the oven and let cook for 30 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven and spread crackers on top. if you choose to use the butter, place pats of butter on top of crushed crackers. Place in the oven for 10 to 15 more minutes.

Enjoy!
