Putting green vegetables into a cheesy casserole is a great way to sneak them into your diet. You will like this recipe even if you aren’t a big fan of broccoli.

Why? That’s because the broccoli will blend right in. Especially if you chop it up small.

Ingredients You’ll Need

Fresh Broccoli (1 head)

Heavy Cream (1/2 cup)

Sour Cream (1/2 cup)

Mature Cheddar Cheese (1 cup, shredded)

Onion Powder (1 tbsp)

Salt (a pinch)

Black Pepper (a pinch)

How to Make Keto Broccoli Casserole

Step 1. Preheat the oven to 350F (180C). Chop the broccoli into small pieces. Try to keep the pieces the same size. This will ensure that they cook evenly.

Step 2. Combine the broccoli with sour cream, heavy cream, 1/3 cup of the cheddar cheese, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

I do recommend to mix everything in a separate bowl before putting it into the pan.

However, it’s ok to mix in the pan if you are tight on time and tools. Or just want fewer dishes to wash.

Step 3. Pour the ingredients into the baking dish of your choice. Ceramic pans work well.

Spread the mixture out so that it’s evenly distributed in the dish. Sprinkle the remaining 2/3 cup of cheese evenly on top.

Step 4. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the top starts to get golden brown.

Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. It’s easier to remove from the pan once it’s cooled off a little bit.

Can You Eat Broccoli on a Keto Diet?

Broccoli is a great vegetable to have while on a keto diet. As mentioned before, it’s high in fiber and relatively low in carbs.

Broccoli is also loaded with nutrients and vitamins to keep you healthy. One cup of cooked broccoli contains almost 250% of your daily target for Vitamin K.

It’s also extremely high in Vitamin C, chromium, and folate. Each cup of broccoli contains 2-3 grams of fiber. High fiber intake is essential for healthy digestion.

Can You Freeze Broccoli Casserole?

You can freeze small portions in individual meal prep containers for easy grab-and-go lunches. The casserole will thaw out just in time to heat up for lunch or dinner.

It’s a great meal to pull out of the freezer on a busy weeknight. Just thaw it in the refrigerator the night before.

Thus, bake the casserole before freezing. Let it cool and cover it with a tight lid. A baking dish like this with a lid will work great here.
