Broccoli-Rice-Sausage Casserole - 12 Easy Steps
We were invited to a "covered dish" tonight at a friend's home. She has re-done her old family home place which was built in 1790 and wanted to have her neighbors and friends over.
I immediately thought about our family favorite - The Broccoli-Rice-Sausage Casserole. A neighbor-friend gave me the recipe about 30 years ago and all my family enjoys it.
The only thing wrong with it is that you mess up a lot of dishes so it is wise to double the recipe and make one for your freezer.
Step 1 - Find The Recipe
Here it is! It is the same card that my friend gave me 30 years ago.
It can also be found in our Tate Family Cook Book

Helpful Hints and Suggestions for This Dish
Be sure to squeeze out all excess water when draining the broccoli or casserole will be too soupy.
You can add a little milk if it seems too thick but I have never had to do that.
Salt and Pepper before adding cheese.
Use Sharp Cheddar and not Extra Sharp.
Recipe says that you can add almonds or chopped celery but I have never done this either.
Looks very pretty served with Curried Fruit. Add baked eggs for a great brunch.
After cooking, soak up excess grease with paper towel.

Christmas Morning Brunch Menu
Broccoli-Rice-Sausage Casserole
Baked Eggs in Christmas Muffin Liners
Tomato Aspic
Buttered Biscuits
This was my menu for Christmas Morning and my family seemed to enjoy it. I probably will not bake the eggs in the muffin liners but bake them right in the muffin tin. They were so good. The Tomato Aspic was the perfect side dish for the Casserole. It tasted like a congealed Bloody Mary. I wish I had thought to take a picture because it did make a beautiful plate

Oh My, OhMe! This would definitely go down as a favorite. It basically has all of some of my most favorite ingredients in it. I think I could probably gorge myself on a whole pan of it. Then again, I am Korean after all. I adore just about anything with rice! lol. 5 stars to ya sugar.

I could tell it was a great dish just by looking at the recipe card! A dud wouldn't have so many drips and splashes on it! Easy to see this card's seen some service. The ingredients and finished product make my mouth water...and so does the idea of consuming it at a home built in 1790! Food and history...two of my favorite things!
Fiving, favoriting and rolling this enjoyable lens to my Laftovers lens where it will keep company with my funny food & drink fridge magnets.
