Cheesy Broccoli Potato Casserole

Or, a sneaky way to get the whole family to eat their veggies.

So this is a casserole that is part twice baked potato and part cheesy broccoli. It is a nice side dish to maybe get everyone in the house to eat their veggies.

You will need

• A bowl to mix it up in.

• A pot to boil the potatoes in

• A 9 x 13 casserole dish

• Peeler, knife, masher, and something to stir with

Ingredients

• 3 large Potatoes ( I used a mix of russet & sweet )

• 3 cups broccoli, blanched or steamed, cut into bite size pieces, ( I just used a bag of frozen, about 12 oz )

• ¼ Cup Sour Cream

• 4oz Cream Cheese

• 4 Tbls Butter

• 2 Cups Shredded Cheese ( I used colby jack, but cheddar or pepper jack would be good )

• Seasonings to Taste: Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Paprika, Chives ( Use what you like )

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 375 F / 190 C

• Peel and cut up potatoes

• Boil until tender

• Drain the potatoes well, then put into bowl

• Add in the butter, cream cheese, sour cream and seasoning, and mash together ( if it is too thick, you can add some milk also )

• Stir in the broccoli and 1 & 1/2 cups of the cheese

• Spread into the casserole dish

• Sprinkle with the remaining cheese

• Bake, uncovered, for about 30 minutes

• Enjoy

Notes

Adding bacon to this would be a really nice addition. Also, you could use any potatoes, I just had those on hand. And if you like spicy, I would recommend adding some red pepper flakes or chili powder to this as well, maybe even some diced up jalapenos.
