cream of mushroom soup

🥗Healthier: homemade mushroom sauce

💰Cheaper: cream of chicken soup

Homemade sauce can be healthier and chicken soup is often cheaper.

bread crumbs

🥗Healthier: panko breadcrumbs

💰Cheaper: crushed crackers

Panko provides a lighter texture, while crackers are often less expensive.

Parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated Romano cheese

Nutritional yeast is dairy-free and adds a cheesy flavor.

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

Steam broccoli until tender, about 5-7 minutes.

In a large bowl, mix cream of mushroom soup, milk, and egg until smooth.

Add steamed broccoli, Swiss cheese, onion, garlic, mustard, black pepper, nutmeg, and cayenne pepper to the bowl; stir to combine.

Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish.

In a separate bowl, melt butter and mix with bread crumbs.

Sprinkle the bread crumb mixture evenly over the casserole.

Top with grated Parmesan cheese for added flavor.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until bubbly and golden brown.

Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
