Notes
How to Thaw Frozen Broccoli
- The easiest way to thaw it is in the refrigerator overnight. As it thaws, the liquid will collect in the bottom of the bowl (or in the bag) and you’ll want to drain that off before you add it to your casserole.
- If you’re like me and forget to toss it in the fridge, you can thaw it in a bowl of water on the counter but it will need a little time to completely thaw out. Then just drain it and you can make the recipe.
- You will need about 6 cups of fresh broccoli florets if you'd rather use fresh broccoli instead of frozen broccoli.
- Add broccoli florets to a large heavy-bottomed stockpot of boiling water. Cook for 3-5 minutes and then drain broccoli from the water. Set aside.
- Follow the recipe according to directions after that.
