Broccoli Casserole - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, cauliflower works well as a substitute for broccoli. You can also use Brussels sprouts or asparagus, though cooking times may vary slightly.
Simply omit the eggs and use a plant-based cream and cheese alternative. Adding a bit of cornstarch (1-2 tsp) can help thicken the filling.
Yes, but thaw and drain it thoroughly to avoid excess moisture. Reduce boiling time to 2-3 minutes since frozen broccoli is partially cooked.
Store it in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the oven at 160°C (320°F) for best texture.
Yes! Wrap tightly or use freezer-safe containers for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
Pair it with roasted chicken, grilled fish, or a fresh salad. Crusty bread also complements the creamy texture nicely.
Ensure broccoli is well-drained after boiling. Pat it dry with a towel if needed, and avoid overloading with extra liquid ingredients.
Assemble the casserole up to a day in advance, but add the final cheese topping just before baking to prevent sogginess.
The recipe is naturally low-carb, but for stricter diets, use full-fat cream and extra cheese while skipping starchy thickeners.
